Out of control, my world crumbles
Like a house built on sand
Every step I take, every move I make
Seems to slip right out of my hand
I try to hold on, I try to hold back
But the chaos consumes me
It's like a raging storm, fierce and wild
And I'm just a helpless debris
Things were once in my control
But now they slip away
Like sands through an hourglass
Fleeting, no matter how I pray
I've lost my grip, I've lost my way
In this maze of uncertainty
The walls are closing in, the path fades away
And I'm left with no guarantee
My thoughts, once organized and clear
Now swirl in a chaotic dance
My emotions, once stable and strong
Are now in a constant trance
Out of control, I scream and shout
But no one hears my plea
I am a prisoner in my own mind
Trapped in this state of being free
The world around me moves too fast
And I'm left in slow motion
Every step I take, every move I make
Seems to lead to my own destruction
But in the midst of this madness
I find a sense of peace
For in letting go of control
I find a sweet release
I may be out of control
But I'm learning to surrender
To the twists and turns of life
And to find beauty in the splendor
So I embrace this chaos
As I learn to let go
For in being out of control
I find a new kind of flow
Out of control, yet free
In the midst of this raging storm
I may not know where I'm going
But I trust in the journey to transform
And so I'll dance in the chaos
With arms open wide
For in letting go of control
I find my truest self inside.
