Someone in Control lyrics

Have your nails scratch the deepest?
Have you broken skin this time?
Made your mark and took me deeper
As you drown me with your eyes
Held my hand, over your mouth
As you scream at me to feel
Felt my scars with understanding, I can't promise anything

Can you tell, that I pick my poison well?
That I have no more to sell to you?

Is it really that important that I settle down?

You never listen to me,
You cannot look me in the eyes.
And I have struggled to see
Why its so easy to push me aside....

I no longer believe,
That you were ever on my side.
How could you know what I need,
When I'm the last thing on your mind...

Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you

Liquid courage pouring down
Sober surface hits the ground
The masquerade has started now
And you have faded into the crowd

How do you know
How do you know just who your friends are
How do you know when you've gone too far to get high again
You always feel so alone
The real you is never shown
Whose influence , whose influence are you under now
So much pressure to fit in

My independence is calling my name
A doubtful voice divides my faith
My independence only hesitates
An unsured choice I can't embrace
You gonna have to carve me,
Carve me from stone,
Right to the bone or I'll end up alone
Playing the role
Of someone in control

Why do I rush to slow down?
Why do I rush to slow down everything?
Why do I rush to slow down?
Why do I rush to slow down everything?

I've opened up my eyes, so tell me what I see
I've opened up my mind, so tell me how to think
Use your big words and show me how to speak
You can't live your life through me
I can't believe you think it's that easy

[chorus]
Your walls of pride are only fencing you in
Your ego's been playing games with your head
You're not the mastermind
I am a product of my own design

Where do I turn
I'm always questioning my sanity
Will I ever learn
I have always stolen my identity

Anyone forgive
Anyone forget
I don't want a life without respect
Life without respect

Feel there is no where that I fit
No where that I fit

I am a repeat offender
I will live with this forever
I am a repeat offender
I am a repeat offender

You have my word
There are only lies in my sincerity

This attraction only to appearance
Becoming your religion, looks are everything
The only thing that means something to you
Satisfaction only on the surface, your eyes are always focused
Go on and let it show, that there is no exception to the rule

So fill the empty space
With another pretty face

You're skin deep, skin deep
No one will ever be perfect in your eyes
You're skin deep, skin deep

Why don't you let me be,
Leave me alone
You start a fire inside
That I can never control
You wanna see a reaction

Come on and cut me down
You got as far as I'll go
Now you're crossing the line
And I am letting you know
Well here's your reaction

Stand up
I have had enough
Walk away
Before I finish what you started
Face to face
I will put you in your place
End this game

It 's hard to trust a stranger
But you're a stranger to yourself so who's to blame
Drown away emotions as you numb yourself from any real pain

There's nothing more real, then nothing's what it seems
We're always caught in between
There's nothing left to feel, but still you cannot leave
You don't know what you need

chorus-
and I know you use me to use you[x3]
to use you, yeah

Let me play
I've been dying to let you win
It's all I wanna be
So won't you take it from me
I wonder
But the less I get the more I give
It's all I wanna be
So won't you take it from me

I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes to see
I want someone to notice me

I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim

-----------------
I wanna meet up with you and show you what I'm thinking
I'll take you anywhere, that you wanna go
I'm sitting here, all lonely and you know that anytime you're free
To show, show me how you feel
I'll take you anywhere, that you wanna go
Anywhere that you wanna go

I'd make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
