Control Freak

Take me back to when I was ok
'Cuz I've been kinda fucked up in every single way
Used to get me, now you don't
Don't regret it, like you say you do
Have you ever read all the things you say?
'Cuz you texted all of them instead of saying them face to face
Could you let me just move on?
There's no reason for me to be here if your love is gone
And I keep on
Telling myself that I have to stop
Letting you control me
Like a control freak babe
And have you heard yourself?
I can't believe I'm about to say
I'm sorry
To this control freak, save me
Can't seem to let you go, I hope you know
That I'm on the road searching for a place
Inside my own head where I know you won't get
Just to mess it up like you did to my love
You're a control freak
You're a control freak
You're a control
You're a control freak
You're a control freak
You're a control
I know what your intentions are when you text me (test me)
It would be easier if I told you to forget me (next please)
I've been wondering if I should ever call
But I'll end up saying it's my fault
Even though it's not at all
You keep on playing me like a doll
And I just can't stand the way you always come
Playing your games, not the same
Do you think that's fun?
And all my friends say that I better run
And I try (But you're always in my mind)
Yeah, I try (But no one seems to get me right)
And I keep on
Telling myself that I have to stop
Letting you control me
Like a control freak, babe
And have you heard yourself?
I can't believe I'm about to say
I'm sorry
To this control freak, save me
Can't seem to let you go I hope you know
That I'm on the road searching for a place
Inside my own head where I know you won't get
Just to mess it up like you did to my love
You're a control freak
You're a control
You're a control
You're a control freak
You're a control
You're a control
Stop saying you miss me, if you don't mean it
I've got plenty of time, but none for your games
I've been kinda busy lately, but I was hoping you could save me
But I guess I'll have to learn how to save myself
Making time for you just can't be right, instead
Taking time from you just seems alright
And now I know that
You're a control freak
You're a control
You're a control
You're a control freak
You're a control
You're a control
You're a control freak, baby
You're a control freak, baby
