"Power & Control" explores the power dynamics between two people in a relationship. The song talks of the "eternal game of tug and war" between men and women and how despite them being essentially the same, the power dynamics in a relationship remain. The song expresses the frustration of being on either side of this game, exploring how one attempts to gain control, whilst simultaneously being controlled by the other. Despite appearances, ultimately "you're not a piece of art", suggesting that control and power are only superficial, and suggest superficial beauty or intelligence can only hold so much power. Ultimately, the conclusion is that it takes a balanced power dynamic between the two for there to be peace.
