I’ve trusted people with my love
I’ve trusted people with my dreams
And where has that gotten me?
Exactly where I began
Listen to the pain from the soul of this man

There used to be a time when it was so easy
Even if I didn’t know them I didn’t care
I saw promise so I would give it a shot
I was comfortable with giving out my trust
I knew to gain theirs, this was a must

But time and time again they abused that
They misused that trust that I gave to them
All of it bottling up has just been adding up
It’s severely affected me so I’m truthful in this claim
That I can’t trust them or anyone else the same

To anyone fresh that may wonder why
It’s not your fault but that of my past
To you and to them, if you want to try and change that
If you think you’ll half step, please don’t
Because trust me when I say, trust you I won’t

Give me a reason not to doubt you, but to trust you
