Lose Control Lyrics

Cover art for Lose Control lyrics by Evanescence

It's not about cheating - and if it is then it's about Mary cheating herself.

Scenario:

Mary converses with something devilish, yeah - maybe a demon.

She then says that she wants to lose control and "make it" with someone since she has been chaste, I guess.

Then a narrator says that Mary had a little lamb - i.e. boyfriend. And this boyfriend was evil because he had a black soul... black eyes...

The demonic thing approaches the little lamb and tells him lets trick Mary. "Let's me and you play." She, Mary, first approached the devilish thing and had many questions, no? Sure, that is exactly how it played out.

She didn't bite so now the demon moved onto her little lamb to persuade her and trick her (He, the lamb will even wait for her at school .... he is a wolf in sheeps clothing).

Mary once again contemplated whether to wreck her life.

Then she tells herself "if I cut you down to a thing I can use I fear there will be nothing good left of you"

So she doesn't defile, debase or deflower herself - she doesn't want to be left sullied.

Way to go Mary.

It's the typical struggle that young people have to maintain their self respect.

You all know those stories of the guy or gal that goes to that party... Stay away from those parties...

The common and predicitable result is that you'll get PWNED!

If you do decide to go then Sit!

You been owned and taken advantage of....
