The Collapse Lyrics

I saw you get it when you wanted it then
I gave it to you when you wanted it now

    I've always thought this song was about either one of two things. The first being rape. The lines such as " 'Cause if I want it I can take away" convinced me of this. Possibly a man trying to force his way with a woman and she doesn't want it, but she can't fight back.
    The second being control. A man wants complete control over a woman that can "Pull the strings" or turn him on. He thinks that she should submit to his control and not fight back. He wants to feel pleasure his own way, even if pain is involved(I want it to bend, I want it to burn).

    The song is about being in control and how you can take away anything from anybody. This song kinda turns me on in a way...haha just saying.
