Trust nobody. Trust nobody. Trust nobody.
I’ve been telling myself this for years.
The voice whispers in my ear. “They’ll only hurt you.”
Trust nobody. “You’ll break again.”
Trust nobody. “They don’t mean what they say.”
Trust nobody. “They don’t really like you.”
Trust nobody. “Family? They have to “like” you”.”
Trust nobody. “They all speak the same lies. They never follow through.”
Hold your head up. Smile. Tell them you trust them.
Inside it just eats me alive and grows like a monster until I feel like I’m being swallowed whole.
Tearing myself apart.
Pushing myself away from people that really care about me.
Trust nobody.
But I want to trust again.
Trust nobody.
I don’t know how to break the cycle I’m in.
Trust nobody.
Something’s got to change.
Trust nobody. Trust nobody.
When does it end? I have to take the first step.
But still the monster whispers, “Trust nobody.”
