**mercury_amy** · 07-06-2006, 01:34 PM

The Open Door, track #9
Written by: Amy Lee and Terry Balsamo

Lose Control has piano and loud guitars. Amy says in person that Dave understands her very well like he his in her head.. etc.
Amy: ‘Dave understands what we want perfectly. If someone doesn’t understand what your band is trying to reach, someone else will lead it and you lose power over it.

LOSE CONTROL

You don't remember my name
I don't really care
can we play the game your way?
can I really lose control?

just once in my life
I think it'd be nice
just to lose control- just once
with all the pretty flowers in the dust

Mary had a lamb
his eyes black as coals
if we play very quiet, my lamb
Mary never has to know

just once in my life
I think it'd be nice
just to lose control- just once

if I cut you down to a thing I can use
I fear there will be nothing good left of you

I love the reference to "Mary Had a Little Lamb". I want to hear this song more than the others. Go Evanescence!!!

This songs lyrics make me think of someone having an affair with a married man:

Quote:

Mary had a lamb
his eyes black as coals
if we play very quiet, my lamb
Mary never has to know

Or maybe about a couple of teenagers having sex and hiding it from their parents.

I really love this song... it is sexy, and it reminds me of slow motion, like how you walk when you're under water or on the moon. I love the piano in it.

Wait! She said she could picture someone having sex to this song? I quit! I definitely MUST hear this. Well, didn't she say the bass was too loud to have sex to?

it's my favorite song from TOD so far. it reminds me of Lies from Origin.

This song is very twisted, I really like it. It's a really good display of the way the bands sound has changed from Fallen (IMO).

This song freaks me out. That is all I have to say.
