control freak.

I took you home again
in this little green heart
that's always full

being perfect is pleasing to others
being perfect is unpleasing to me

You watched me change
into the one who doesn't change at all
They watched me change
into someone unlike myself
In between love and reality
is where I live

Hearts and feet are too strategically placed
between tangibility and mentality

You'll hold me up
and show me how to move
They'll hold me up
and show me how to move back
to my former self
Coz that's how they love me
That's how you hate me

So I'll hold this cup
half-full of liquor
So I'll hold this burden
half-full of you
And swallow down this coke
coz this is all I can taste

You're all I want to taste

The control freak is stronger
Stronger than you
I feel alive through your direction
So tell me who I am
Show me what to do
Prove to me that I'm better
I'm all better.
You proved that I'm better than you.
