Control in disguise

Verse 1
I never say the words you want to hear,
But I show you what you need, crystal clear.
With this smile and fire in my eyes,
I call it love — but it’s control in disguise.

Pre-Chorus
I say I care, but it’s all in my game,
Every sweet word pulls you back again.
You think it’s real, but it’s just a lie,
A trap I set so you’ll never say goodbye.

Chorus
I don’t love you — no, I own you instead,
The version of you inside my head.
I’m the storm that’ll tear you apart,
Keep you close, but break your heart.
Your hope, your trust — all just fuel,
For a fire I start, and never cool.

Verse 2
I whisper promises, baited and cruel,
Every apology, a twisted rule.
I bend your mind, rewrite your truth,
Make you doubt your heart and youth.

Pre-Chorus
I say I care, but it’s all in my game,
Every sweet word pulls you back again.
You think it’s real, but it’s just a lie,
A trap I set so you’ll never say goodbye.

Chorus
I don’t love you — no, I own you instead,
The version of you inside my head.
I’m the storm that’ll tear you apart,
Keep you close, but break your heart.
Your hope, your trust — all just fuel,
For a fire I start, and never cool.

Bridge
When you fight back, I flip the script,
Paint you dark, leave you eclipsed.
I wear my charm like a second skin,
Hide the damage that’s deep within.

Outro
If you’re broken, know this truth:
You’re not crazy, it’s me who’s proof.
I never loved, I just took control —
A shadow haunting your very soul.
