A high-energy punk anthem that captures the essence of self-deprecation wrapped in humor and chaos. 'Chaos & Control' combines fast-paced riffs with conversational verses that reflect on bad decisions and life's unpredictability, all while maintaining a light-hearted spirit. This song is perfect for those who can laugh at the messiness of life while still pushing forward with resilience.
Verse 1:
I woke up late, missed my chance to shine,
Tripped on my shoes, well that’s just fine.
Coffee spilled all over my brand new shirt,
Seems like every day I’m stuck in the dirt.
Chorus:
But hey, that’s life, let’s laugh and go!
Screaming loud, let the chaos flow.
We’re stumbling but we’re standing tall,
In this mess, we’ll have a ball!
Verse 2:
Tried to be cool, but lost my way,
Fumbled my words with nothing to say.
Plans all fell through, like dominoes,
Life’s a joke, just laugh as it goes.
Chorus:
But hey, that’s life, let’s laugh and go!
Screaming loud, let the chaos flow.
We’re stumbling but we’re standing tall,
In this mess, we’ll have a ball!
Bridge:
Little mistakes stacking up like a show,
But with every fall, come on, let’s glow!
Embracing the wild, this is our scene,
Laughing at chaos, living the dream.
Chorus:
But hey, that’s life, let’s laugh and go!
Screaming loud, let the chaos flow.
We’re stumbling but we’re standing tall,
In this mess, we’ll have a ball!
Outro:
So raise a glass to the wild and free,
This beautiful mess is just you and me.
We’ll shout it out, let the world see,
In chaos and control, we’re meant to be!

This song leans a little more into the self-deprecating side of the album while still keeping that fast, melodic punch you’d expect from something inspired by Teenage Bottlerocket. It opens with a quick, driving riff and rolls into verses that feel almost conversational—like someone trying (and failing) to explain how everything went sideways—before exploding into a super catchy, shout-along chorus. The whole song plays like a highlight reel of small bad decisions stacking up, but instead of getting heavy, it keeps things light with humor and a “whatever, let’s keep going” attitude. It’s the kind of track that feels chaotic but controlled, like you’re laughing at the mess while still in the middle of it.
