Beyond Control Songtext
von The Dream Syndicate

I′m a walking coming attraction
I don't give a single thing away
I′m a scrapyard and a barking dog
Everything must go

I'm a loosely bound novel
Without an opening line
I'm a preamble and a middle
The story′s hard to find

Hanging on for dear life
Just beyond control, control

When the steam releases
Architect of it all
Frozen on the vine
Tightly wound like a ball
I′m a barking dog
From somewhere down the hall


Hanging on for dear life
Falling down in the hole
Bracing for the fall
Just beyond control, control

Hanging on for dear life
Falling down in the hole
Bracing for the fall
Just beyond control, control

Ah-ah-ah-ah
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) control

How'd you like the letting go?
When did you release your soul?
When did all the good arise?
Why did you stop telling lies?
How′d you like the letting go?
When did you release your soul?

Hanging on for dear life
Burrowed down in the hole
On the edge of a knife
Just beyond control


Hanging on for dear life
Burrowed down in the hole
On the edge of a knife
Just beyond control
