Control

I will not give you control My life is not meant for the cold And you can burn me out all you want But I will not give you control Yeah, choose to burn I won't run, I'll dig down I won't flee, I'll stick out Let my face melt Burn me from the inside out I just suffer at your hand, and you wonder how Play the victim, but you're guilty and you know it But you play it like you're innocent, now you've found A way to crowd my mind with doubt I can feel me come undone by your lying frowns Left to wonder in the misery, crawling 'round Through broken pieces that you left for me, nearly drowned In all the torment that you poured in Don't act like you're disappointed Because you're the one that tainted the pain on my face And you made me the way that I am, and I hate it I waited so patiently for you to change, and I gave you that Handed out chance after chance But you never owned up to your own mistakes I won't run away, I'ma just burn Suffer you're disgrace, but your grace is what I yearn So just face who you are with the knife in my heart And the blood on your hands, while you tell me all apart Still staying strong while I bleed from my arms And I keep working on, I'ma show 'em every single wrong I'ma suffer so they see everything you are, and what you did to me I will not give you control My life is not meant for the cold And you can burn me out all you want But I will not give you control Won't give you control Give you control, oh Won't give you control Give you control Yeah, so desperate for control Overreact and shut out the world Keep on pointing fingers with deceiving goals So the only truth won't take a hold Keep on pointing fingers so that you ignore What you're seeing in the mirror that you've become Your reflection is a monster, but you find it so much easier to run Than to face what you've done Storms are raging deep inside me While your callous heart sits high up on his throne You just tell me into pieces like a ragdoll that is worn And you lie and leave like you did nothing Tell me, what for? Fortify your safety, and leave me without a home Always feeling lonely I'm waiting outside your gate like a guard without a posting I don't know where I am going I'm tired of feeling broken I'm tired of you ignoring me I don't want to expose it But, baby, I'm really going to I will not give you control My life is not meant for the cold And you can burn me out all you want But I will not give you control Won't give you control Give you control, oh Won't give you control Give you control
