Everything

Held back...
Held back by a thread,by a memory of what used to be.
I just want to live my life but this thread is choking me.
I tried and tried to please you but it never changed a thing.

Now you're tearing me in two with all the broken memories you bring
And how its killing me as the days just eat away.
I just want to forget you but my mind won't let me escape.
The past has its grip and is beating down on me.

I fight back with all my strength to find I'll never be free.
Was it all a game to you,did you ever care?

Did you ever care?

I can't deny what I had spoken,taking back all that I said.
I wish I could erase those words I had chosen just to get you back again.
Now I wallow in sorrow to the fact that you are gone.
I place the blame on myself,admitting that I was wrong.

I realize the damage I caused to secede from the pain.
The words that slipped from my lips were used for my gain.
The last thing I wanted was to hurt you like that but my selfishness had its way and sympathy was what I lacked.
I wish I could take it back.(x4)

Follow your rules so I can be myself.
Listen to what you say so I can think for myself.
Everything I say has been said before.
Everything I think has been thought before.
Who is in control?

All my beliefs have been traced out for me.
My fate has been laid out for me.
I look in the mirror and all I see is you.
I look at myself and all I see is you.
Who is in control?

I'll fight you,Ill resist you.
You can't control me.
