carlcollins1970 This track shines bright for me, the listener as it showcases this band perfectly. The passion and energy they demonstrate in performing live rarely breaks through but on this recording, you feel it. I just love the vocal originality by Rachel which she does perfectly. Favorite track: Control.

about

Our debut single "Control', Releasing on 12.02.2021 demands your attention towards the conscious and unconscious hunger there is in society to regulate a woman's purpose and worth. The social minefield facing women, causing confusion and anxiety that steers a woman's ambition and focus into all the wrong places.

Let us be clear, this not a song about male dominance it's a song about our own agenda to keep that firm grasp on a woman's autonomy.

lyrics

INTRO

VERSE 1

They will never find a way to respect you
Your only purpose is borrowed, old and blue
Camera edits will distort and distract you
The image creates such a lonely view

BRIDGE

Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Smile Smile Smile
Smile Smile Smile

Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Smile Smile Smile
Smile Smile Smile

CHORUS

35 and the world stops listening
35 and no one cares
Pull your wings off,
fall to pieces
Tear your dreams up
coz no one cares

BREAK

VERSE 2

They ache,
They need to control you
Change your face to something
young and new

They desire,
they want to change you
They’ve always dreamt of
owning something
beautiful, beautiful

BRIDGE

Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Smile Smile Smile
Smile Smile Smile

Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Know your place, stay in line, be forgotten
Smile Smile Smile
Smile Smile Smile

CHORUS x2

35 and the world stops listening
35 and no one cares

Pull your wings off, fall to pieces
Tear up your dream
coz no one cares

OUTRO

Know your place
Stay in Line
Know your place
Stay in Line

Smile, smile
Smile, smile
Smile, smile
Smile, smile
