eric bass - mind control lyrics
[verse 1]
i was bought and sold
when i was nine years old
they beat me like a drum
they beat me like a drum
brainsick, raving mad
when i was just a lad
i knew what i’d become
i knew what i’d become
[pre+chorus]
i don’t think you love me like you should
your touch is old and tired
so i don’t think i love you like i could
i think i’ll bathe you all in kerosene and light you on fire
[chorus]
mind control
how this world is getting old
i won’t save your wretched souls
but i think i might save you from yourselves
who am i?
the architect and watchful eye
to an assisted suicide
the only one who’ll save you from yourselves
[verse 2]
well, i can be forgiving but i’m not (not, not, not)
i think i’ll eat your happiness, i like the taste a lot
it makes me who i am
it makes me who i am
and i love to watch you twitch when you’re hanging by a thread
or see the resignation when you’re strung out on the dread
i’ll beat you like a drum
i’ll beat you like a drum
[pre+chorus]
i don’t think you love me like you should, no
but now i got you singing like a choir
so i’ll drown you all in gasoline and light you on fire!
[chorus]
mind control
how this world is getting old
i won’t save your wretched souls
but i think i might save you from yourselves
who am i?
the architect and watchful eye
to an assisted suicide
the only one to save you from yourselves
[bridge]
show me who’s the king
sing
[breakdown]
mind control
yeah, this world was getting old
now he’ll save our wretched souls
the only one to save us from ourselves
f+ck it all
learn to walk before we crawl
now we know [?]
the only one to save us from ourselves
[outro]
it’s hard to have a past
when everything that’s old is new again
these sins aren’t meant to last
but yours are hanging on and that rests with you my friend
you know you’re only passing on the pain
to try and keep these memories contained
and you wish that you were young
and you could go back and just try again
