Lose Control Lyrics
by Teddy Swims
Teddy Swims' "Lose Control" is a poignant exploration of personal discovery into an emotional maelstrom, dependence, and addiction to a loved one. The song sets up a scenario on feelings of being lost and detached, for example, where the absence of a significant other causes extreme sadness and a feeling of falling apart in the singer. This is well brought out by the lyrics that denote the inability to let go of a romantic relationship, even at a point when one realizes that it is no longer tenable.
The chorus drives the point of how the singer is helpless and devastated without his partner, highlighting the big impacts of dependency on his life. It is his way of admitting that his addiction to his partner's presence leaves him bare and disarrayed. Equally, he touches on the problem of dependency when he mentions "wish it was a bad habit that I could break," in the line that shows how he just cannot resist needing his partner.
"Lose Control" reflects on so many dimensions of love: its pain, of emotional dependence, and the duress one is made vulnerable to in pursuit of healing personal demons. Teddy Swims' raw and fiery singing alone pulls you into a world of introspection at its best. But there's a struggle within to make the inside beget the outside, and a strong yearning for a connection to be felt so profoundly can be almost vexing.
Lose Control Song Lyrics
Lose Control by Teddy Swims
No, I don't know myself anymore
Feels like the walls are all closing in
And the devil's knocking at my door, whoa
Outta my mind, how many times
Did I tell you I'm no good at being alone?
Yeah it's taking a toll on me, trying my best to keep
From tearing the skin off my bones
Don't you know
I lose control
When you're not next to me?
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see
I lose control
When you're not next to me?
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
Problematic, problem is
I want your body like a fiend, like a bad habit
Bad habit's hard to break when I'm with you
Yeah I know, I could do it on my own, but I want
That real full moon black magic and it takes two
Problematic, problem is
When I'm with you I'm an addict
And I need some relief, my skin in your teeth
Can't see the forest through the trees
Got me down on my knees, darling please, oh
I lose control
When you're not next to me
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see
I lose control
When you're not next to me?
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me, yeah
I lose control
When you're not here with me
I'm falling apart right in front of you
Can't you see
I lose control
When you're not here with me?
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
