Take Control

It echoes off the wall

But yet, there is no noise

It screams in the night

But is quieter than a whisper

 

It's the sound of being alone

Not knowing who you are

What you'll become

Or what you're worth

 

Always questioning

And over-thinking

Driving yourself crazy

With every waking moment

 

Control yourself girl

Seems like it's hard to do

But think about it

You're your own worst enemy

 

You can do anything

Just put your mind to it

You don't need anybody

But you need everybody

 

Keep those who are close

as close as can be

and those who are loose

just weren't meant to be

 

You can tell

who is who

Because those who aren't

won't fight for you

 

So relax girl

you're doing just fine

Because you are loved

And that can never be changed.
