  • Rage is a quiet thing
    You think that you've tamed it
    It's just lying in wait
    Oh
    Rage
    Is it in our veins?
    Feel it in my face when, when I least expect it

    Mm

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
    Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
    Simmer, simmer, simmer

    If I had seen my reflection
    Something more precious
    He would've never
    Mmm and if my child needed protection
    From a fucker like that man
    I'd sooner gut him
    'Cause nothing cuts like a mother
    Give in

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
    Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?

    Hmm, mm mm
    Wrap yourself in petals, mm
    Wrap yourself in petals, mm
    Wrap yourself, wrap yourself in petals, mm

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
    Simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer, simmer down

    Control
    There's so many ways to give in
    Eyes close
    Another way to make it to ten
    Oh, how to draw the line between wrath and mercy?
