Self Control
Soraya Arnelas Lyrics

Oh, the night is my world
The singer is most comfortable and alive during the nighttime when the city lights illuminate the surroundings.

City light painted girl
The image of a woman is seen through the flickering lights of the city, captivating the singer's attention and imagination.

In the day nothing matters
The singer feels that daytime activities and obligations are meaningless, and the true essence of life is only experienced during the night.

It's the night time that flatters
The artist feels that the night brings out the beauty in everything, from the cityscape to the people that roam the streets.

In the night, no control
The artist feels that they have no restraint during the nighttime and can let loose.

Through the wall something's breaking
The singer hears a commotion or disturbance coming from the other side of a partition or structure.

Wearing white as you're walkin'
The woman that the singer has seen in the city is wearing white, possibly symbolizing purity or innocence.

Down the street of my soul
The woman that the artist has seen has made a lasting impact on them and has gone deep into their psyche.

You take my self, you take my self control
The woman the artist has seen takes away their self-control and inhibitions, causing them to act recklessly.

You got me livin' only for the night
The woman the artist has seen has captivated them to the point where they only live for the moments during the nighttime when they may see her again.

Before the morning comes, the story's told
The singer knows that the happiness and excitement they feel during the nighttime will not last, and the experience will be fleeting once daylight breaks.

Another night, another day goes by
The passage of time doesn't matter to the artist, as they continue to yearn for the excitement and energy of the nighttime.

I never stop myself to wonder why
The singer doesn't question why they feel so alive during the nighttime, but instead embraces it without hesitation.

You make to me forget to play my role
The woman the singer has seen has made them forget their responsibilities and obligations, causing them to act out of character.

I, I live among the creatures of the night
The singer feels a sense of belonging with the people that come alive during the nighttime.

I haven't got the will to try and fight
The artist doesn't have the motivation to resist the temptation of the nighttime and the excitement it brings.

Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it
The artist doesn't have faith in the possibility of tomorrow bringing anything different, and so is content with living in the moment of the night.

That tomorrow never comes to get
The singer feels that tomorrow is an abstract concept that never fully arrives, and thus they can continue to live in the moment of the night forever.

I know the night is not as it would seem
The singer is aware that the allure and excitement of the nighttime is not as glamorous as it appears on the surface.

I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it
The artist needs to believe in something to continue living, even if it isn't fully based in reality.

That this night will never go
The artist hopes that the excitement and energy of the nighttime will never end.
