You gradually take all my control
You slowly subtly steal my soul
You write the songs that cause me pain
You play the games that cause me shame
You trick me into going places
You tempt me then to show new faces
You dance me into ancient times
You show me how to write these rhymes
You tell me to ignore my qualms
You teach me how to fake my calm
You steal my body to mold my mind
Then let me go until next time.
