Take Control

[Chorus]
Take control
Take control

[Verse 1]
I see a vision rising, dreary
Fading in as children play twilight games
In the town called Ordinary
An eye of light reveals a gateway to doomsday
In that projection of reality
Something passes through the stars, shifting walls
Enter agents of ill fantasy
For evil holds you in its arms, false alarms

[Interlude: Reversed speech]
Eert ecurps a semoceb elif enots eht ni dimaryp hte ;yldnuoforp htob meht ees ,setats revef neknurd rieht ni

[Pre-Chorus]
Illusory, treading on reality
Polaris in a web of hypocrisy

[Chorus]
Take control
Take control

[Verse 2]
Oh, can't you see, see the light is fading?
And in the night the demons rage and call your name
No deeper madness than your own making
Visions lashing blades of shame, but will you take the blame?
Hissing noises in the hallway
Bloodshot eyes, staring through, what seeds are sown?
Who'll survive the blood red power play?
Who'll take control, whose name will be known?

[Interlude: Reversed speech]
91 ,9 ,4 ,81 ,1 ,7 ,91 ,1 ;erehw uoy llet lliw dnomaid eht

[Pre-Chorus]
Illusory, reality's all fallacy
Polaris in a web of hypocrisy

[Chorus]
Take control
Take control

[Bridge]
I wish I'd had the wherewithal to find you when I had the chance
Instead I danced with death in fervour's skin
I missed the moment before the fall to recognise I had a voice
A choice to stop it all from happening
If only I could save you from the pain
A rising sense of awe and wonder
A might I see has always been deep within me
I can feel my inborn power
I call the shots when it's all finally clear to see
And so I'm drawn ever deeper
In the Oldest House and all these empty rooms
This vacant, spellbound mystery motel
Where I'm the keeper, where I set the rules

[Interlude: Reversed speech]
Suovzedner terces a ot uoy ekat ot droc eht dnif ,moor der eht ot no gnihsur dna rats ralop eht no gnidnal

[Pre-Chorus]
Potency, is my new reality
Polaris, living now inside of me

[Chorus]
I control
I control
I control
