Out Of Control
The Foxymorons Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dewese-James

I’m out of control, I’m losing my senses
My self esteem is leaving me
My glass is half full spilling over at times
But now it’s half empty can hardly see.

I know you’ve tried to explain yourself
But I can’t hear a word you say
The sun is no longer shining down
It’s packed its bags and gone away.

I’m out of control, I’m losing my senses
My self esteem is leaving me
My glass is half full spilling over at times
But now it’s half empty can hardly see a drop.

I know you’ve tried to explain yourself
But I can’t hear a word you say
The sun is no longer shining down
It’s packed its bags and gone away.

Pa pa la la la …

I know you’ve tried to explain yourself
But I can’t hear a word you say
The sun is no longer shining down
It’s packed its bags and gone away.

I’m outta control (I’m outta control)




I’m outta control (I’m outta control)
I’m outta control (I’m outta control)
