Self Control (Original version)
Oh, the night is my worldCity lights, painted girlsIn the day nothing mattersIt's the night-time that flattersIn the night, no controlThrough the wall something breakingWearing white as you're walkin'Down the street of my soul
You take my self, you take my self controlYou got me livin' only for the nightBefore the morning comes, the story's toldYou take my self, you take my self control
Another night, another day goes byI never stop myself to wonder whyYou make me forget to play my roleYou take my self, you take my self control
I, I live among the creatures of the nightI haven't got the will to try and fightAgainst a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe itThat tomorrow never comes again
Night, I'm living in a moment of dreamI know the night is not as it would seemI must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe itThat this night will never go
Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh!Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh!Oh, oh, oh! Oh, oh, oh!
