Your warmth, your warmth
Is so deep
Your gaze
Beams a hole into me

Controlling again
Unseparated twins
Controlling again

You've sucked
All the breath out of me
You'll squeeze
All the life out of me

Controlling again
Unseparated twins
Controlling again

Controlling again
Unseparated twins
You'd rather be

Come gentle, slowly
Down tonight

    despite this being a Showbiz-era bside, it's one of my favourites, so everyone should go download and listen to it immediately!

    these lyrics are wrong wrong WRONG. wrong. wrong. wrong. wrong. "controlling again unseparated twins"!!!! i mean, how does "i'm separated too, you'd rather be" make sense?? the shrinking universe lyrics were wrong too. "unseparated twins you'd rather be" this song is about raisa and liz, obviously.

    and more about raisa and liz, cause i guess i've left you all in the dark in that aspect. they're the twins in question, although they're not blood-related, they're connected by one common factor, their love of muse. not really a love, more like, i dunno, a necessity, like muse is as important, if not more, than the air they breathe. they're being kept apart by muse though, they hardy ever see each other, and when they do, they're in the direct presence of muse, because when they are together it's a very powerful thing, so they're kept apart unless around muse, because muse obviously "controlling again" controls them, and keeps their weird powers at bay. xx

    I can't believe there's only 3 comments, but I guess that's what happens to B-Sides. :) This song is absolutely brilliant in every way and the chorus is out of control. One of my favorites.

    Well being a twin, I can relate to this song. The Cave EP is my favourite EP, this song is brilliant, Kudos to Muse for writing a song about me! This Raisa and Liz story confuses me.... please explain?

    Raisa? Liz? Muse controlling them?? "I Love muse More" are you sure you aren't reading this story from the Muse fan fiction you wrote? Looks to me like this song is about a guy struggling with split personality. A Dr. Jekyl/Mr. Hyde type situation.
