Self Control is the third studio album by American singer Laura Branigan, released in April 1984, by Atlantic Records. The album peaked at number 23 on the US Billboard 200 and has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
The premise of Laura Branigan's "Self Control" is that the singer is the victim of some type of repression. Basically, the way she conducts herself during daylight hours is not a true reflection of who she is. Nor is it the type of life that she idealizes for herself. Self Control Lyrics: Oh, the night is my world / City light painted girl / In the day nothing matters / It's the night time that flatters / In the night, no control / Through the wall
You take my self, you take my self control. You got me livin' only for the night. Before the morning comes, the story's told. You take my self, you take my self control. Another night, another day goes by. I never stop myself to wonder why. You help me to, forget to play my role. You take my self, you take my self control.
