Taking Control Back From Your Hands
I let you in to the deepest part of my heart
But you hurt me deeper than you can know
I let you in... into my life
Yet, all you can say is so!
Why do I let things continue as they are
Why do you have such control
Why can't I see you for the real person that you are
Nothing but a scared little boy!
It's so frustrating to see you every day
Only to be mad at myself for the feelings that I have
I hate myself for the control you have over me
Why can't I let you be?
It's maddening those tears I cry
Knowing that what I feel is lost on you
A scared little boy, running from every little thing
I can't let you do it to me... not anymore
I have to take back the control!

My heart fought with
Towards a lonely pathway
Never have I imagined this day
Though it hurts to part ways
My heart will heal someday
So much for
Shades.
They say it's depressing
It's a little too dark
they ask for other angles
but I am tangled up in scars
You left me stranded
You ask me to walk way
Sever what we had without a glance behind
As if the love we once shared was simply a figment of my

Return to work!
Which ever route, I'm taken on,
will bring for me, exciting doors,
and I will tread with confidence,
instead
