Teach me to trust
I want you to teach me,
put the pencil in my hand and show me how to write.
Show me how to color the past instead of erasing it.
Teach me to love myself, In the way you love me.
Show me where I went wrong, then tell me to turn right.
Teach me smile more and cry a less.
Show me what I don't see,
Protect my eyes from what I shouldn't.
Make me laugh in the midst of my tears.
Teach me to forget why I was sad.
Show me how to conquer the pain.
Tell me what you want, and how you're gonna get it.
Show me why I should trust you,
Then,
teach me how.
