Controlling
You made me your doll,
your puppet on strings.
I am your voodoo doll,
the one you keep stabbing
straight in the back.
I am the one you push
away, until I look like
the apple you keep dropping
onto the pavement.
Thanks to you,
I found a dream career.
Thanks to you,
I have the possibility to move
across the Earth.
Thanks to you,
I get to flee from the mention of you.
I want to be
the puppet
who was free of strings.
the voodoo doll
who removed the pin from her back.
the doll
who was no longer made from glass.
Thanks to you,
I am a stronger being.
Thanks to you,
I will be successful.
Thanks to you,
I found motivation
to stop you
from being controlling.
