Trust

Pretend your sleeping
He might believe you
Close, close eyes
Violate
Violate
Violate
Make it stop
Pretend your sleeping
Violate
Violate
Violate
Push, run, hide
What can you do but hide what’s inside
So that he doesn’t see whats truly in your eyes
I heard she did that
I heard she did this
He wouldn’t lie
He wouldn’t lie
I can’t believe she would do that
I heard she did this
I heard she did that
Friendless. Alone.
I cry by myself
But no one can hear the cries
I cry by myself but no body wants to hear the cries
Because they’re to busy thinking and believing
All the lies
Slut. SLUT. Slut.
I try to scrub it away but everyone knows:
That once the ink’s to the page
You can’t scrub it away because
It’s INK.
Cut. Bleed. Cry.
Cut. Bleed. Cry.
Finally…. She meets a guy.

She meets a guy that can make her feel
Whole again.
She meets a guy who actually acts like
A friend.
Love. Love.
-Stifle-
Too young for love.
-Stifle-
To young to be tied down.
-Stifle-
Need to get out.
Cheat.
Cheat.
Cheat.
Need to get out.
I’m sorry.
Cheat.
Cheat.
I’m sorry: I found a new guy.

Love.
Cheat. Cheat. Cheat.
Second Chances
Love.
He takes me away to a special place
He takes me away into space.
Never before had I felt so whole,
Never before had I been so bold
But suddenly the patterns continue to unfold.
Lies lies lies.
I found a new guy.

Love
Love so much you can barely hold it in.
Then all of a sudden:
CHEAT. Cheat…cheat
Heart keeps breaking breaking into a thousand pieces that maybe never be picked up but all of a sudden its time again for:
Second Chances
Only this time…
Changes
Maybe a girl can learn to trust again.
