Control

Don’t try and make yourself hate him
He tried that one with you.
He ended up just hating himself
And more in love with you.

You’ll have to learn from all his mistakes
The brain can lie but your heart will never fake.

He’s been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find
As quickly as he could
‘Cos he knew you would.
When he saw that distant look
He had to say goodbye
‘Cos he knew you could.

People say that he’s a bastard
Thats an unfair use of words.
When I don’t know what was going on,
No, I never really heard.
Why don’t you wake up to what he’s got.
Do you have the time to find out if he’s lost control?

There's no point in hanging around
If happiness can’t be found, you’d better go.
He never stopped to ask you why
He never had to try, well he was wrong.

Why don’t you wake up to what you want
and listen to his lines.
‘Cos what you two have been going through
Has happened many times.

I’ve never seen you taking any prisoners
But I’ve seen you weep,yeah.
I’ve seen you apologising,
But thats not gonna work with me.

I’ve heard you’re telling everybody what you’ve done to him
But that doesn’t add up to a sorry and its not gonna work with me.

Why don’t you wake up to what he’s got
And stop filling him with lies.
‘Cos what you two have been going through
Has happened many times.
Its happened too many times
