[00:21.450]I tried to control my shaking
[00:26.730]With just one sound
[00:32.430]I tried to warm the ocean
[00:37.810]By writing it down
[00:42.140]I tried to tame my nightmare
[00:48.200]Line by line
[00:52.870]If I write a song about you
[00:58.830]Does that make you mine?
[01:03.560]The conductor caught in slow motion
[01:08.610]The orchestra plays on
[01:13.390]Over and over; the same motion
[01:18.980]This work is never done
[01:23.840]The only thing that's certain
[01:29.700]Is your indecision
[01:34.630]I guess it must be working
[01:38.580]Cause you hit me with such precision
[01:45.800]Now the strings are breaking
[01:50.250]Their fingers run with blood
[01:55.240]But they keep on playing
[02:00.410]The cycle never stops
[02:03.880]Who's in control?
[02:09.800]Who's playing who?
[02:13.540]She wants to be amongst them
[02:22.270]Conducting them too
[02:26.210]She knows the song won't save her
[02:32.190]But what else can she do?
[02:36.970]She weeps just like a willow
[02:42.620]She's playing for you
[02:47.580]She's fragile and she's ferocious
[02:52.650]As the current flows through
[02:57.530]She's a conductor caught in slow motion
[03:02.970]The orchestra plays on
[03:09.390]Over and over; the same motion
[03:13.520]This work is never done
[03:19.370]Now here comes the crescendo
[03:23.810]The music starts to swell
[03:29.610]And now it's so ecstatic
[03:33.220]I know this part so well
[03:40.600]And then it goes staccato
[03:44.890]The notes were flying up
[03:50.590]Higher and higher
[03:55.130]But they never reach the top
[03:58.310]Who's in control?
[04:03.140]Who's playing who?
[04:08.940]Who's in control?
[04:13.770]Who's playing who?
[04:21.240]I am the orchestra
[04:26.800]The conductor too
[04:31.510]My heart is a concert hall
[04:37.260]And I filled it with you

I tried to control my shaking
With just one sound
I tried to warm the ocean
By writing it down
I tried to tame my nightmare
Line by line
If I write a song about you
Does that make you mine?
The conductor caught in slow motion
The orchestra plays on
Over and over; the same motion
This work is never done
The only thing that's certain
Is your indecision
I guess it must be working
Cause you hit me with such precision
Now the strings are breaking
Their fingers run with blood
But they keep on playing
The cycle never stops
Who's in control?
Who's playing who?
She wants to be amongst them
Conducting them too
She knows the song won't save her
But what else can she do?
She weeps just like a willow
She's playing for you
She's fragile and she's ferocious
As the current flows through
She's a conductor caught in slow motion
The orchestra plays on
Over and over; the same motion
This work is never done
Now here comes the crescendo

And now it's so ecstatic
I know this part so well

Who's in control?
Who's playing who?
Who's in control?
Who's playing who?
I am the orchestra
The conductor too
My heart is a concert hall
And I filled it with you
