Self control isnt the same as self preservation,though some confuse the two. Self control is what keeps you from endangering yourself and the people around you. People who lack self control like to think of themselves as living dangerously or on the edge, which is not entirely off, but there's a difference between doing something risky on purpose and knowing what the risks beforehand, and wandering/stumbling your way into it and not knowing why. The same people who brag about living dangerously are the first to want credit for being cautious, they call themselves cautious every time they gain control of themselves, which is something other people are doing all the time, using self-control. It's like being honest, nobody should get credit for being honest, responsible, or using self-control and good judgment. Self preservation is doing anything it takes to survive, like a snake or a reptile, without any thought about anything else.

Get the self control mug.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 something's breaking
Wearing white as you're walkin'
Down the street of my soul
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
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven't got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow
So I guess I'll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
A safe night (you take my self, you take my self control)
I'm living in the forest of my dream (you take my self, you take my self control)
I know the night is not as it would seem (you take my self, you take my self control)
I must believe in something
So I'll make myself believe it (you take my self, you take my self control)
This night will never go
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh...
