| Don’t call my phone just to boast |
| 'Bout all the all the good things that you do |
| Don’t be so bold, I’ve seen your cold heart |
| Say good things, but bad ones too |
| You wanna pick the world around me apart |
| One by one, destroying the ventures of my heart |
| You wanna make it look like I was at fault |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| How come I can’t always be what I wanna be? |
| You still feel young, but this life’s overcoming me ('Coming me) |
| Get me in play, picture frames on the mantle piece |
| Made me feel strange, manipulated, unknowingly |
| No, oh |
| Mmm, mmm |
| Don’t tell me off just because |
| You let emotions get the best of you |
| And don’t you dare consider scaring |
| Me into things I don’t wanna do |
| You wanna pick the world around me apart |
| One by one, destroying the ventures of my heart |
| You wanna make it look like I was at fault |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| How come I can’t always be what I wanna be? (Wanna be) |
| You still feel young, but this life’s overcoming me |
| Get me in play, picture frames on the mantle piece |
| Made me feel strange, manipulated, unknowingly |
| Mmm, unknowingly |
| Mmm, mmm |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| I’m just a victim of excessive control |
| How come I can’t always be what I wanna be? |
| You still feel young, but this life’s overcoming me |
| Get me in play, picture frames on the mantle piece |
| Made me feel strange, manipulated, unknowingly |
| Unknowingly |
| Oh, how come I can’t |
| How come I can’t |
| Oh, unknowingly |
| Unknowingly |
| Control of me, mmm |
