I'm perfectly in control of my life, it's your loss
I'm digging myself a hole, thrown in, get tossed
Forgetting all the answers to the questions I created in me
Contradicts a paradox that irony fails to see
Follow my nose to spite my taste I see no reason to rhyme
Then comes the moment I find that I'm
Perfectly in control
Of my life, it's your loss
I'm digging myself a hole
Climb in, at your cost
From the moment I wake until the moment I lie
Beneath the mystery of truth that all good things must die
There's no escaping that we'll never fully shake the disease
Now get your knee off my neck so I can breathe
Perfectly in control
Of my life, it's your loss
I'm digging myself a hole
Thrown in, get tossed
A broken man that's falling apart
I'll just pick up my scattered remains
And try to put myself back together again
Though your intentions are good, my inclination's to leave
There are no stones left unturned so save your breath, if you please
You try to add to my vice my wit has come to an end
I have no need to defend that I'm not
Perfectly in control
Of my life, it's your loss
I'm digging myself a hole
Climb in, at all cost
