Self Control

You leave me like a shadow after dark Surrounded now by people greater than I was And I hate to think it's true But now I'm nothing to you And I wonder what did I do Temptations for a brand new shiny toy Frustration this feeling I can't avoid Turned to stranger overnight I lost all my sense of pride And in your eyes I am deemed out of sight Can you, can you still love me I just need you to want me This feeling of neglect bruises my soul In an instant you dropped me And that is just disgusting Because of you I have no self control I can't sleep I think of you every night As I silently weep cause there's no more you and I Really thought that this would last Reminiscing in the past Devastation painted colorfast Can you, can you still love me I just need you to want me This feeling of neglect bruises my soul In an instant you dropped me And that is just disgusting Because of you I have no self control I thought that you showed character But you only caused me disaster I thought you would feel my need for validation You said that you were whimsical But you're just stereotypical You got rid of me then threw a celebration Can you, can you still love me I just need you to want me This feeling of neglect bruises my soul In an instant you dropped me And that is just disgusting Because of you I have no self control You leave me like a shadow after dark
