Lyrics:

you know, trust is a funny thing
paradoxical in nature, yet so undeniably real 
suddenly brittle as paper 
when once it was strong as steel 

so what, then, is trust?
- an agreement that I see the flaws in you, 
and you see the flaws in me,
and as imperfect creatures 
we will do no harm to each other willingly.

because who else but the closest of those among us 
know where the hurt buried deep inside us lies?
those cracks in the armor of your psyche
which only the most well-placed of arrows can find 

so when someone you trusted not to
puts that poison in your cup 
and you feel the floor falls out from under your feet,
you're stuck there tumbling in that void
between one life and the next 
reevaluating who you should be 

So from this day forth, I will look people in the face when I walk by 
and I will say what I feel with my entire chest
because I am done letting people use my emotions 
as a weapon to cut my flesh 

NO MORE

NOW I'LL LIGHT THE FIRE IN MY GUT 
I'LL PUT THE STEEL IN MY BONES 
BECAUSE NO ONE HAS MY FUCKING BACK ANYMORE
I'VE GOTTA  DO IT ON MY OWN 

FORGED IN THE FIRE OF ADVERSITY 
BAPTIZED AS THE RAIN FALLS DOWN 

I WILL EMERGE, ANEW 
I WILL EMERGE, ANEW 

because I guess a "friend" is just a word that you say: 
if you never back it up, well it never meant anything.

I can't decide what comes next 
but I know that I have to keep you at arm's length 
I wont let you break my trust again, 


𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘥𝘰𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘯.


I WASTED HALF MY LIFE 
THINKING THAT YOU WERE ON MY SIDE

I got caught in a rainstorm walking back to my car while thinking about how not to starve
