Wanted: Trust

Lies, lies, everywhere I go
But who can I trust? How do I know?
Out of everyone I know, only three I believe
Only because there truths can I clearly see
Where is the honesty? What has happened to our world
The trust that was there has grown bad and curled
So who would you turn to if everywhere there was doubt?
Most of the time not even knowing what the lies are about
Understandable to lie to protect somebody maybe even yourself but
Not ones to deceive, hurt, kill, or even just cut
There cannot be even the smallest relation without trust
because without it, it will burnout, die, and bust
