Out of Control
U.S. Crush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Monday morning
Eighteen years of dawning
I say how long
You say how long

It was one dull morning
Woke the world with bawling
I was so sad (so sad)
It was so bad

I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

Boys and girls
Go to the school and girls
They make children
Not like this one

I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

(Out of control)

(Out of control)

I fought fate
There's blood on the garden gate
The man said childhood
It's in his childhood

One day I'll die
The choice will not be mine
Will it be too late
You can't fight it





I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

I've watched a vid talking about how your crush might like you and here's the question and answer

1. They use protected guester around you.
She doesn't really do it that much, she has opened the door for me sometimes and when I have aguement, she helps to calm and tell me to not do it

2. They tend to copy you.
I have autism so i am bit hypo act bit different to a avaege person. She hasnt really copied me but she is sometimes hypo when i bit hypo.

3. Eye contact.
When we speak we always have eye contact and we both noticed if we both make eye contact for like 10seconds we tend to have a conversation.

4. They laugh with you.
This mostly happens but always happens when we facetime. Usally she or me stares at one and another and we tend to laugh, i always laugh when laughs and she mostly does the same.

5. They don't use anything to block you from them.
We have rarely sat next to eachother but when ever we have a conversation or see eachother after school, we tend to go near eachother. She usually has a bag around her but when im near she puts her bag behind her

6. They tell you stuff.
She always tells me stuff before anyone else even if she was suppose to tell someone else before me.

Honerable mentions:

-We usally call everyday and it lasts over 1 hour and a half an hour the most we called was 13th April 2023 which was 7 times, all lasting 2hrs.

-Im a football person and when i call her then say ima get changed and play football she says yay and when i put my phone near the goal she acts like a cheerleader. When she's at home and i call her, she tends to do activities like makeup, dancing and naps, we done a nap thing and it lasted over 10mins, whenever she needs to go somewhere she mostly says you are coming with me and takes her phone.

- She asked me what Jacket she should wear and i suggested one that kinda looks like mine and she actually wore it for A whole week and someother times.

-Im a pianoist and she loves golden hour, ive been learning it and are planning to play it to her and if i havw the guts and its a talent show, ill say this song is for my special person and some people already know im looking at one now.

-When i had double isolation, i was in the courtyard and she took her break to come see me in a classroom near the courtyard.

- One of her friends wrote my initial+ her initials on the board with a love heart so i ran then came 10secs after because i already missed her
