about

Control Freak comes out swinging as the first track off the album. A dizzying drum rhythm from Aidan evolves into a breakneck garage rock banger complete with powerful, glitchy vocal layers from Michayla.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feeling drob, like a slob
Never mind, here comes the mob
Feeling ragged, take a drag
Spoke too soon, no need to nag

[Prechorus]
I won’t let you shut my mind
Won’t let you keep my thoughts confined
Time to go, you’ve been so kind
Now don’t keep up, get left behind

[Chorus]
Tread softly, carry a big stick
Don’t ever let them know how you can tick
Take control, drain like a parasite
Your bark’s no worse than your bite

Condescend, call me a lunatic
Break reason with lies and shams and rhetoric
I’m done now, sick with all your violent slights
I like you better when you’re out of sight

[Verse 2]
Feeling stifled, filled with strife
Never mind, here comes the knife
Feeling trapped, worn and tapped
Guess I’ll just have to adapt

Plant the seed, and let it bleed
We both know who did the deed
Let it pass the hourglass
Now you’re not so upper class

[Chorus]
Tread softly, carry a big stick
Don’t ever let them know how you can tick
Take control, drain like a parasite
Your bark’s no worse than your bite

Condescend, call me a lunatic
Break reason with lies and shams and rhetoric
I’m done now, sick with all your violent slights
I like you better when you’re out of sight

[Bridge]
Control freak
Control freak
Control freak

Don’t push me
Don’t push me
Don’t push me

You know you can’t get out this time
Time will tell how you lose this time
You have no control for this time
Don’t forget how you lose this time

[Chorus]
Tread softly, carry a big stick
Don’t ever let them know how you can tick
Take control, drain like a parasite
Your bark’s no worse than your bite

Condescend, call me a lunatic
Break reason with lies and shams and rhetoric
I’m done now, sick with all your violent slights
I like you better when you’re out of sight
