Control

I know who I want to be,
I know what I want to see,
What I want to feel.
And I would like to try and see you take,
Take it all away from me,
Like it's something you can just steal.

I've got a little too much hope,
Too much for you to take,
This is heavy load,
Are you sure it's what you want to take?
You might just break.

You've got a little way,
Of letting your mouth say,
Stupid little things.
Before - they cut me like a knife,
I let it rule my life,
Like it meant everything.

But I don't want that now,
It made me realize,
It made me see the light somehow,
It's not right,
And I can do what I want with my life.

This is how it is now,
And I have found,
That the prettiest feelings can come out of the dark,
Out of a warn out heart.

And I've let you push me on the curb,
Like it's what I deserve,
That I'm meant to just watch,
Whether I like it or not.
But the last straw has blown,
I'm not having any of this anymore,
I'm control.
