Don'T Trust

Don't trust
Don't be one of them
Don't wait till it's too late
And then cave in
Keep your head on straight
And always know
People will change
Their face in the show
Don't be a fool
For a charming smile
A two-faced mind
Will make a smile lie
Don't think you have it all
And settle in so easy
They'll make you feel at home
Then be quick to deceive you
Just keep your head on straight
And always know
People will change 
Their face in the show
