This time the glove is latex
This time the suit is white
New life has found a place
It's laid eggs in someone's eyes
Hook:
I want control
Even when you don't
Would I still want control
Even when you don't
Would I still want control
Even when you don't
Would I still want control
Even when you don't
your skin's a lot like plastic
Some kind of bad disguise
Transfusing blood for paper
So sweet, you're drawing flys
Hook:times 2

The speaker might be trying to comfort the other party, by mentioning they're bringing forth new life, in the form of maggots in their decomposing corpse.
I'm not sure about the chorus. Is it the dead body saying this to the person giving them the autopsy, like they're pleading to regain control? Maybe, they're asking themselves if that's even possible?
It's possible that the person inspecting the body is asking themselves this question. If they were dead (and they're speaking to their body) would they still be able to want "control" even when the body doesn't?
