Paseo

Do I have what it takes to put this straight? I know deep inside I don’t want to fake It’s time for me to take back my life With you holding so tight I can’t survive Did controlling me make you feel strong? Made me numb for way too long You need to be a man and let me go Can’t pull me down just because your spirit is low Tell me did breaking me make whole? I hope you got something out of stealing my soul Held my heart in your hand only to destroy Telling me how to behave like I was a toy But your twisted fairytale is coming to an end Welcome to my reality where lies don’t easily mend Your punishment won’t succeed when your power is gone You might have scarred me but the battle you never won Now I walk on a set path where I reign Have no time for you and your pathetic game Find someone else to shift around in your fantasies My life your will never again have to seize
