Control
Unveiling Inner Demons: Maize Mirchi's 'Control' Reveals a Battle Within
Lyrics
They send me away to find them a fortune
Sent away to seek wealth and fortune for others.
A chest filled with diamonds and gold
Tasked with finding a chest full of diamonds and gold.
The house was awake, the shadows and monsters
The surroundings are active with shadows and monsters.
The hallways, they echoed and groanedI sat alone, in bed till the morning
Alone in bed, surrounded by echoing and groaning hallways.
I'm crying, "They're coming for me"
Expressing fear and anticipation of being pursued.
And I tried to hold these secrets inside me
Struggling to keep secrets hidden within.
My mind's like a deadly diseaseI'm bigger than my body
Describing a mind with destructive thoughts.
I'm colder than this home
Feeling larger than one's physical body.
I'm meaner than my demons
Characterizing oneself as more hostile than personal demons.
I'm bigger than these bonesAnd all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
Asserting a presence beyond physical existence.
I can't help this awful energy
Children pleading to stop, sensing a frightening aura.
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Embracing the intimidating nature and demanding acknowledgment.
Who is in control?I paced around for hours on empty
Ruminating aimlessly in an empty space.
I jumped at the slightest of sounds
Reacting nervously to the slightest sounds.
And I couldn't stand the person inside me
Disliking the person within, reflected in turning mirrors away.
I turned all the mirrors around
Rejecting self-reflection and confronting inner struggles.
I'm bigger than my body
Reiterating a sense of being larger than the physical form.
I'm colder than this home
Describing an emotional coldness within one's home.
I'm meaner than my demons
Stating a greater hostility than personal demons.
I'm bigger than these bones
Emphasizing a presence beyond the physical body.
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
Children pleading to stop, sensing a frightening aura (repeated).
I can't help this awful energy
Acknowledging an uncontrollable negative energy.
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Reaffirming the need for fear and respect.
Who is in control?
Posing a question about who holds control.
I'm well acquainted with villains that live in my head
Familiarity with villains residing in one's thoughts.
They beg me to write them so they'll never die when I'm dead
The villains urge the speaker to immortalize them through writing.
I'm bigger than my body
Reiterating a sense of being larger than the physical form (repeated).
I'm colder than this home
Describing an emotional coldness within one's home (repeated).
I'm meaner than my demons
Stating a greater hostility than personal demons (repeated).
I'm bigger than these bones
Emphasizing a presence beyond the physical body (repeated).
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
Children pleading to stop, sensing a frightening aura (repeated).
I can't help this awful energy
Acknowledging an uncontrollable negative energy (repeated).
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Reaffirming the need for fear and respect (repeated).
Who is in control?
Posing a question about who holds control (repeated).
