Control

I know all you want is complete control  
eventually this will take its toll  
I'm sick and tired of the relentless nagging  
I'm weary from the ranting and ragging  
you're a good man who can be solid as a rock  
but all this nagging has got to stop  
I can't handle the constant control freakery  
deep down you're afraid to see the real me  
the thing that you don't seem to realize  
controlling and nagging don't make passion rise  
you think shutting your mind is a winning game  
but it will be your loss and that's a shame  
you're selfish too and don't want to share me with others  
when pressure builds I find other lovers  
I may seem calm but you cause me strife  
on my skin just appeared another hive  
I have my own issues that's why I stayed  
my part of the equation for which I paid  
but the price of all this has gotten too high  
In my plans someday with relief I will sigh  
when you look at me now I may seem weak and dazed  
what you don't know is that my will is unfazed  
you think you broke me but baby you're wrong  
cause being with you has made me strong
