Joy Division: She's Lost Control

Confusion in her eyes that says it all
She's lost control
And she's clinging to the nearest passerby
She's lost control
And she gave away the secrets of her past
And said »I've lost control again«

And she turned to me and took me by the hand
And said »I've lost control again«
And how I'll never know just why or understand
She said »I've lost control again«
And she screamed out, kicking on her side and said »I've lost control again«
And seized up on the floor -
I though she'd died
She said »I've lost control again«
She's lost control again -
She's lost control

Well I had to phone her friends to state
Her case and say she's lost control again
And she showed up all her errors and mistakes
And said »I've lost control again«
But she expressed herself in many different ways
Until she lost control again
And walked upon the edge of no escape
And laughed »I've lost control again«
She's lost control again
She's lost control

I could live a little there
In the midst of the light
When the darkness closed in
I could have broke down and cried
I could live a little
In the white of light
When the change is gone
When the caring's gone
To lose control -
When the caring's gone
