Control

Why is that you still want to control me Don't you want to see me happy and free Why is your stronghold such a hard thing to break Why do you put more on me than I can take Why do you take so much enjoyment over controlling me Do you not anticipate that one day I will be free Why do I keep you and allow you to run things Realising its nothing but despair it brings Why do you feel that you need to control me Don't you understand that this is not how it should be Why are you still here and why can't you go I'm supposing first you need another weak body to go Why can't you just stop controlling me Don't you realise your effect on me other people can see Why are you so addictive and yet so bad for my health Why do you cost me so much more than my wealth Why do you think that I won't stop you controlling me Don't I understand that I actually gave you the key Why can't I now take stock of the reigns So that I can stop you controlling me again Why do you have such control over me Do you not comprehend this is not how it is to be Why has it taken me so many years to finally realise Why your control makes me look weak in other's eyes
