From the first day, I knew I had to spoil you rotten
Had to play a long game, had to see it through
In retrospect you never left me that many options
One look across the table and I knew I had something to prove
I am on a bus and it's headed in a good direction
I am on a bus and it's headed where I'd like it to go
I am not behind the wheel but I'm the one calling the shots here
I am in complete control, I am in complete control

In a failed state, how are you supposed to know me?
Poison in the wires, awful air, mortal hum, better stay inside
Give you my orchard, give you the honeydew earth that I care for
You can thank me later honey I got a couple dozen things in mind
The weight of this ambition is a burden I carry
With a smile: on my throne, walk the grounds, keep relaxed, keep you in my eyes
But you are the most beautiful thing in this house and that honestly scares me
Friction tells me what to do, friction keeps me uptight
Lover's in the corner he's trying to attract my attention
And I got him dressing up, dressing up, in his ribbons and bows
The spirit is asleep but the body has got to move forward
D'ya see it now?
I am in complete control, I am in complete control, I am in complete control
Control control control control control control

Oh, I heard no lust when you were laughing there
You know that gets me down
I heard no lust, it was the just-because
That kept me hanging around
He said, please, I see no way forward
I said, all for the best
He said, please, I see no way forward
I said start making sense
'Cause I was content!
I was content!
I was content for days to tie you down
I was content!
I am on a bus in a good direction
I am in complete control!
Control control control control control control

It always feels brand
New when I see you
It's like the first time
All escalation
Deer in my headlights
We're under pressure
We're on the rise
Every color on you
Better in my eyes
I, I had ideas
We're supposed to smear
Together! but we were never enough
Ran out of parts of us
And we were so so close
My plan was watertight
I had the here and now
But I ran out of time
I hate you so much
When you are not here
I make myself sick
Drop me a line, dear
All is forgiven
If I could try this again
There's nothing left of me, man
It always feels brand
New when I see you
It's like the first time
All escalation
Deer in my headlights
I am in my prime
I cannot outrun
I cannot turn back
We are the only one
We are the only one
We are the only one
We are the only one
And I am on a bus in a good direction
The only one, only one, only one
We are the only one
We are the only one
We are the only one
We are the only one
And I am on a bus in a good direction
The only one, only one, only one
