Mind’s on fire
Your lips are so tired
Frankenstein lady
Your eyebrows are hairy, crazy
3, 4, where’s the door?
9, 10, we’re at it again!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
I once thought I knew you
Never really though...
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
1, 2, too good to be through
Please, please, we’re out of cheese!
I’m still tied, and I’m still trying
9, 10, we’re at it again!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
I once thought I liked you
Never really though...
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
Love fades and love never lasts
I saw us kissing in a photograph
And now it’s too late, because we, we never asked…
WOW!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
I once thought I loved you
Never really though...
Have Mercy, Lose Control!
Lose control...
Lose control..?

Sarah Bethe Nelson leans into the uncanny and the poetic without resorting to grand settings or sweeping metaphors. Bandcamp Album of the Day Aug 1, 2022
