Lost Control by Through The Void (2024)

Lost Control

Share:

Lost control, constant tension, temporary treat
I don't even know why anymore
The taste that goes away when I get close
The imminence is harmful to any ambition
What to do to avoid
Afflictions that will return
Tomorrow falls, tomorrow fails
My mind keeps burning

Lost control, alone again
Past, present and future
Mingle and it's hard to bear
It's blood that pulses so deep
Channeling the will to sink
In itself or in any drink at the bar
(Keep it up, keep it up, in your mind)
Control is what we want!
(Come on lover, come on, love yourself)
More and more and more
To overcome the limits
(Keep it up, keep it up, in your mind)
And be ready for what to come
(Come on lover, come on, love yourself)
Why we do avoid all the places that we will return
Why the evil people try to crash the mirrors they won't
But a new day keeps coming to shine in our dreams
Love yourself, love yourself
Lost control, not again, not again
Future becomes present
As I see everything goes away
Future becomes present
But when it comes I can't understand
We always want more
More and more and more and more
Future becomes present
As I see everything goes away

Future becomes present
And when it comes I can understand

The lyrics of Through The Void's song "Lost Control" express a deep sense of inner turmoil and struggle with one's own desires and ambitions. The singer finds themselves in a state of constant tension, unable to distinguish their temporary pleasures from their long-term goals. The lyrics suggest a feeling of confusion and frustration, as they question their own motivations and the fleeting nature of their indulgences.

The theme of losing control pervades the lyrics, with the singer feeling overwhelmed by the imminence of their desires and ambitions. The internal conflict is palpable as they grapple with the harmful effects of their impulses on their aspirations. The repetition of the phrase "lost control" reinforces the sense of helplessness and lack of agency in the face of their own inner turmoil.

There is a palpable sense of isolation and self-reflection in the lyrics, as the singer finds themselves alone once again in their struggle. The past, present, and future blur together, creating a disorienting and overwhelming experience. The imagery of blood pulsing deep and the desire to sink into oneself or drown in escapism at a bar suggests a profound internal struggle and emotional intensity.

Despite the overwhelming sense of confusion and inner conflict, the lyrics also convey a message of self-empowerment and resilience. The call to "love yourself" and to "keep it up in your mind" hints at a desire to regain control and overcome the limits imposed by their own inner chaos. The repetition of the idea that the future becomes present underscores the cyclical nature of their struggles, but also hints at a glimmer of hope and understanding that may come with time and self-reflection.

Lost control, constant tension, temporary treat
Feeling overwhelmed by stress and seeking a momentary escape

I don't even know why anymore
Feeling confused and unsure about the reasons behind actions

The taste that goes away when I get close
The allure of something fading when it becomes attainable

The imminence is harmful to any ambition
The pressure of nearing a goal can be detrimental to one's aspirations

What to do to avoid
How to prevent or sidestep unwanted feelings or situations

Afflictions that will return
Problems or struggles that will come back again

Tomorrow falls, tomorrow fails
Expectations for the future not meeting reality

My mind keeps burning
Constant mental turmoil and distress

Lost control, alone again
Feeling out of control and isolated once more

Past, present and future
Navigating through different points in time

Mingle and it's hard to bear
When memories and expectations overlap, it becomes difficult to handle

It's blood that pulses so deep
Intense emotions running through one's veins

Channeling the will to sink
Directing efforts towards a self-destructive path

In itself or in any drink at the bar
Seeking solace either within oneself or through alcohol

Control is what we want!
The desire to have mastery over one's own life

More and more and more
The insatiable craving for greater satisfaction

To overcome the limits
To push beyond boundaries and restrictions

And be ready for what to come
Preparing oneself for the future and its challenges

Why we do avoid all the places that we will return
Questioning why we shun situations that we know we'll face again

Why the evil people try to crash the mirrors they won't
Wondering why negative individuals attempt to destroy reflections of themselves

But a new day keeps coming to shine in our dreams
Despite challenges, hope and possibilities continue to appear

Lost control, not again, not again
Feeling overwhelmed and out of control once more

Future becomes present
The future turning into the present moment

As I see everything goes away
Observing how things change or disappear

But when it comes I can't understand
Struggling to comprehend or make sense of new situations

We always want more
The continual desire for greater satisfaction or fulfillment
