Under Control
City Lights and Demons: Danny Houston's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
It's been a while
Reflecting on a past duration of time
Since I've been back to the city
Not being in the city for a while
And I know that I've been asking
Expressing a previous inquiry or request
So tonight will you come with me
Asking someone to accompany tonight
I hope you do, do ,do
Hope for the person to join
There's no one like you, you, You
Highlighting uniqueness and significance of someone
No one like you
Reiterating the uniqueness of the person
It's a party a party
Emphasizing a celebratory atmosphere
Cigarettes and bacardi
Mentioning specific items at the party
We all have our issues
Acknowledging individual challenges or problems
Some of us just started
Some individuals are just beginning to face their issues
I'm hardly I'm hardly waking up in the morning
Struggling to wake up in the morning
(I'm hardly I'm hardly waking up in the morning)
Repetition of difficulty waking up in the morning
Wish you were with me I'm tipsy
Desire for someone's presence while being slightly intoxicated
Wishing you would forgive me
Wishing for forgiveness from the absent person
The longer that you're gone the more that I need Whitney
Increasing need for the absent person as time passes
You miss me you miss me
Confirmation of being missed by the absent person
Hate the way that you did me
Disliking how the absent person treated them
(You miss me you miss me
Reiteration of feeling missed and mistreated
Hate the way that you did me)
-I've got my monsters but you've got your demons
Acknowledging personal struggles while recognizing the other person's struggles
I know you hate me but you've got your reasons
Acknowledging the other person's dislike for them with acknowledged reasons
I've got my monsters but you've got your demons
Reiteration of personal and the other person's struggles
I think I'm falling, falling off the deep end
Sensation of losing control or stability emotionally
It's been a while
Reflecting on the absence from the city again
Since I've been back to the city
Not being in the city for a while
And I know that I've been asking
Expressing a previous inquiry or request
So tonight will you come with me
Asking someone to accompany tonight
I hope you do, do ,do
Hope for the person to join
There's no one like you, you, You
Highlighting uniqueness and significance of someone
No one like you
Reiterating the uniqueness of the person
