I give you my trust That belongs to so few So old, it's covered in rust It's been years since it grew My trust has grown tough Having been broken too many times It's calluses are rough Rougher than the skin of limes I am trusting you Please be careful with me Promise you'll be true I break very easily I love you That's a fact Truer than true It's not an act So take my trust Treat it with care Lest it be dust Crushed out of despair

Trust
I give you my trust That belongs to so few So old, it's covered in rust It's been years since it grew My trust has grown tough Having been broken too many times It's calluses are rough Rougher than the skin of limes I am trusting you Please be careful with me Promise you'll be true I break very easily I love you That's a fact Truer than true It's not an act So take my trust Treat it with care Lest it be dust Crushed out of despair
Paranoia gets the better of me all too often, but many times I am right to be paranoid. We live in a lying, cheating, broken world.
