I SET MY CONTROLS TO OVERDRIVE
out of love – out of lust
all I had – I just turned to dust
burned the crops – kept the cream
scorched the Earth – my Nero Decree
out of town – out of bounds
all I was - tomorrow won’t be found
I am done with abstract whims
I am gone - absinthe without leave
gone and going too fast in a lucid thrill
gone and going too fast on adrenaline
gone and going too fast and I come alight
then I hit the switch and I’m free to fly
I set my controls to overdrive
out of sight – out of reach
all i had – wasn’t hard to ditch
left the thorns – kept the rose
I am gone – rebel without pause
gone and going too fast in a lucid thrill
gone and going too fast on adrenaline
gone and going too fast and I come alight
then I hit the switch and I I’m free to fly
I set my controls to overdrive
out of control – I’m gone
out of this world – I’m gone – I’m gone gone gone
I am gone – I shall never return
future open wide
I set my controls to overdrive
