Out Of Control
U.Stone and Feue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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)
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
The lyrics to U.Stone and Feue's song "Out of Control" convey a sense of confusion and helplessness in the face of life's uncertainties. The first stanza talks about the passage of time, with the singer questioning how long they will have to endure their situation. The repetition of "how long" highlights the feeling of being stuck in a time loop, where one day seems no different from the next. The second half of the stanza describes a sad event that has occurred, leaving the singer feeling overwhelmed and out of control.
The chorus reinforces these feelings of helplessness, with the repetition of the phrase "out of control." The singer is of the opinion that their life is spiraling out of control, and they feel powerless to stop it. The second stanza continues this theme, observing how boys and girls go to school and make children, but the singer's situation is not like theirs. They do not feel in control of their life in the way that others seem to be.
The final stanza brings a sense of finality to the song, with the singer acknowledging their mortality and the inevitability of their own death. They cannot fight fate, and the blood on the garden gate suggests that violence and suffering are a part of life. Despite the darkness of the lyrics, the song is also marked by a sense of resignation and acceptance.
