Trust is Broken!!!!

Trust is earned not given

It is a prize, not an obligation

But what it is to a girl who just wants to believe

Believe that everybody is pure

True, transparent

Like her

But when the world is filled with leeches

You are bound to become one

Or be a victim of one

One simple betray can change the child to an adult

One lie can cause an open heart to become guarded

Fuck, the heart shows loyalty

But what is loyalty when the devil gets involved

Who am I to show compassion?

To give you my last dime

So you can save you million

This is the world we live

This is who I have to protect myself from

Is there anyone left I can trust?

No, nobody but myself

That’s tough!
