Powerlines

And I try, try to shake my shadows away

Lift the volume 'cause the sound, it always stays

But we are a monster and we are afraid

We are a monster and we are afraid

You could never force the sun to stay

Didn't you know that there's some things you can't say?

But we are a monster and we are afraid

We are a monster and we are afraid

(I am the master) Of my own parade

(I choose my fires) And I choose my frays

The queen lives alone and I live for today

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines

Oh, please, tell me, Romeo

How we gonna pay our fines

Don't we all know all the signs

Don't we all see the signs?

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines

Count all your problems, count them all for disgrace

Living on the line only makes me awake

I'm here forever, but forever is tamed

When did you think that time don't ever betray?

I could run wild or you know, I could just stay

The mind is powerless when the heart's afraid

You thought I was done, but I never felt the earthquake

Wait for it, honey, you bet this is my parade

(I am the master) Of my own parade

(I choose my fires) And I choose my frays

The queen lives alone and I live for today

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines

Oh, please, tell me, Romeo

How we gonna pay our fines?

Don't we all know all the signs

Don't we all see the signs?

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines

You love your control

And I love power lines

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, babe, oh, baby, baby

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines

Oh, please, tell me, Romeo

How we gonna pay our fines?

Don't we all know all the signs

Don't we all see the signs?

Oh, baby, you love your control

And I love my power lines
