Lyrics 
Don't you mess with a little girl's dream
'Cause she's liable to grow up, mean

Surprised you to find that I'm laughin’
You thought that you'd find me in tears

When the creative energy ceases
Of the doubt, it's true
There is something comical to the idea
While you were tearin’ a hole in me
'Cause I was miserable
'Cause I was miserable
To breath in the summer air

And castles all inside the palm of my hand
Now I have taken control, control
I've got them in my garden now
But I am a queen understand
Now I have taken control, control
Don't you mess with me
Now I have taken control, I was taking control
While you were tearin’ a hole in me
No, that's not the way to do it, power
I was taking control
That you taught me to fear
While you were lookin’ the other way
It's your world
While you were lookin’ the other way
Which is a predictable deterioration
I was taking control
So this is how it feels
While you were tearin’ a hole in me
And you thought you could feed on my soul
Power corrupts
I gave you the benefit
That's not the way to do it, paradox
To feel the sand between my toes
While you were sellin’ your soul
In your belly you’re scared to let through
Watching you squirm in your shoes
And you’re not welcome here, come here
Let me look at you
And love inside my ear
It’s scaring me
Like a tiny mosquito and tremblin’ in fear
All those things
Well, you may be king for the moment
[Inaudible]
Not every saint is a fool
This is beginning to feel good
While you were lookin’ the other way
But while you were busy destroyin’ my life
'Cause I was miserable
That we can really inforce our will on humanity
Because in our confrontation with an enormous and cold universe
No, it's your world, no, it's your world
And I've got your pawns and your bishops
While you had your eyes closed
Surprised you to find that I'm laughin’
This cannot be all that there is to life
While you were lickin’ your lips
No, it's your world, no
You thought that you'd find me in tears
While you had your eyes closed
While you were sellin’ your soul
Now I have taken control, control
A small bead of sweat on your brow and a growl
But keep in mind, my darling
It's your world, do with it what you want
Phenomenon of deterioration, entropy
While you were sellin’ your soul
What was half in me has become whole

Now I have taken control, control
While you were lickin’ your lips
You thought you could keep me from loving
Now I have taken control, control, control
Now I have taken control, control
And at the end of it all lies of course the final
I was taking control
Don't you mess with a little girl's dream
'Cause she's liable to grow up, mean
While you were lickin’ your lips
You thought I'd be crawling the walls
Come a little bit closer
While you had your eyes closed
Now I have taken control, control
