Oingo Boingo - Out of Control Lyrics

Everyone says sooner or later
You'll reach the end of the line
When things get rough some think
It's easy to jump the ship, you decide

I say, "Don't throw it away
There's about a million reasons why
Though you've heard them all before
And you're getting very tired
Lay your head on my lap
And I'll sing you this lullaby"

Don't you know, yeah
That everyone around you
Has felt the pain you feel today
You're out of control, yeah

And you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning, it'll only be a dream
You're out of control, you're out of control
You're out of control, you're out of control

There's a cloud rollin' overhead
And it seems to rain on no one else
There's a black sun casting a black shadow
I know you feel so alone

You're out of control and you want the world to love you
Or maybe you just want a chance to let them know
That you live and breathe and suffer
And your back is in the corner
And you've got nowhere to go

Nothin' for nothin', every thing's right
At your fingertips for a price
Who ever said that life on this planet
Would ever be paradise

I say, "Don't throw it away
You've got too many things to say
If you throw away your life, if you throw away your life
If you throw away your life
The world will never be the same"

Don't you know, yeah
That everyone around you
Has felt the pain you feel today
You're out of control, yeah

And you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning, it'll only be a dream
You're out of control, you're out of control
You're out of control, you're out of control

Don't you know, yeah
That everyone around you
Has felt the pain you feel today
You're out of control, yeah

It'll only be a dream, you're out of control
And you move without direction
And people look right through your soul
You're out of control and you want someone to tell you
When you wake up in the morning it'll only be a dream

And I wish that I could tell you
It'll only be a dream
