Story Behind The Song
The song is about a guy who is completely obsessed with a girl, not in a relationship way but in more of a power-hungry kind of way. The character in the song just wants control and to inflict his pain on the girl, the subject of the song. Weird.
Song Description
This song came together one night around 2 in the morning as we sat up playing music. The entirety of it came together in probably an hour or less. One of those songs that write themselves, I guess.

Lyrics
Just like the day gives into the night
You'll see that I am all that is right
And give to me what's already mine
I don't wanna hold your hand
I don't wanna be your man
I just want you to understand
I'm gonna make you mine
Girl, I'll make you cry
Girl, I'll make you cry
Girl, I'll make you cry
Until I make you mine
Wine numbs the worried mind
Time spent wasting time
And soon you'll walk the line
So hard to make you see
How it's gonna be
My pain will set you free,
Until I make you mine
Girl I'll make you cry,
Girl I'll make you cry,
Girl I'll make you cry,
Until I make you mine
