I Don'T Trust

I just came to a weird realization
       I don't trust my friends 
         Further than I can throw them 
           You see cause my conscience
              Is always constantly running
                 and it's never to defend them
                   it's always whispering 
                       Matter of fact screaming
                           Alerts, warning in my ears
                            Telling me to beware
                              I look at my friends
                               Suspiciously 
                              Could they be talking about me? 
                                   In the little notes they read
                                     It's a brutal awaking for me
                                      I live my life afraid 
                                         of what people will say
                                         and what people think 
                                            most of all my friends
                                               I trust no one 
                                              I think that's my problem
