No Trust In Words of Man

Things that are promised Are never for sure Days out there, in the world We don’t get past the door I swear, I promise, doesn’t mean a thing These old, faded sayings have a sour ring For there is no trust in the words of man Quick spurts and fake steam, water in a pan A magic trick, pure and simple, to distract the eye An everyday person is sure to comply But me, I have learned, I know better now To resist believing, temptation, I wish I knew how For I place trust, in the word of a liar I always get burned, when I play with this fire I must learn to doubt, to question and such But I never believed, ones I once loved could hurt me this much Now I’m through trusting, unheedingly so I’ve found the key, the secrets, others don’t know I never quite knew, just who to believe So I trusted them all, and now no one, I seethe It only took one, to pit me against all of mankind That space in the middle is something I must find.
