I Control

Break break break it down to size so you can understand so I can tell you more

 

take take take some more so I can give you some so you can sell it again

 

tell me why you are talking to them why are you talking to her why do you have to why do you 

 

give me away sell me back some day take the words away from the pen in my hand

 

I can't control it I can't I won't I don't know

 

I don't know and I like that but it's scary, would I have it any other way? Would I?

 

Give it a minute, think it over, come to the same conclusion that you didn't know anything in the first place

 

you are unable to decide a decision that's not yours to make

 

you take what you're given and do with it what you will, use it control it make it into life, my life

 

my life, my strife, my joy, my pain, my life, I control

 

I control myself. And nothing else.

Off the top of my head. Spewed out from the middle, more like.

Wow.. this one is a struggle of emotions.. and in the end finding that the battle leads to knowledge that we can only control ourselves and our own emotions.. I firmly believe that this is true but that some do have the ability to be a voice above others or lead.. your path shows you wish to control nothing more than yourself and your own destiny.. very good.. and honest.. thank you!!! =)

I've struggled with this concept for a long while. I still lose the battle at times but I realize that the only control is ONLY over ONE'S SELF.. A hard lesson to learn but a valuable one.. Make your own destiny & everything will follow.. Thanks for sharing this universal feeling.. I love the lines:" give me away sell me back some day take the words away from the pen in my hand ... I can't control it I can't I won't I don't know" ... Thanks again for sharing. Words off the top or from middle suits you..
