Mistrust
How can I trust you again?
You took my love for granted
You thought you saw something better
And ran off when the chance came
You’re vile lies
Slip through your soft lips
Your smile tries to bring me peace
But the words you say torment me
Is it right for me
To give you another chance
Is it wrong for me
To try and rebuild what we had
You faked your love before
How will I know it’s real?
Are you faking passion with poison
Will I succumb to it when it’s too late?
You’re telling me all these lies
Wrapped with golden truths
I know you loved me at some point
But I know it wasn’t enough to keep you
Are you here to be my companion?
Or
Are you here for my compassion?
