Untrusted Love

John Lee


The bass is ringing my ears as I listen to every beat of her heart..
I stand paralyzed as I watch her eyes pour out, it's tearing me apart..

I reach out to ease her doubt but I'm trapped in the glass box unable to shout..

"I'm here!" She doesn't hear me, I'm just like the others so she fears me, I need to let myself go, I know I can show her the man I can be..

"Trust me" I say, man please, I'm no more than a rat that doesn't deserve the cheese.. It wasn't long ago I'm falling on my knees begging God with a plead to forgive me that it's Him I need..

It takes two broken hearts for one to be healed, who am I kidding it's back to one as soon as my past is revealed..
Living out a bad decision, it's not a dream, it's real..

Pretty soon this box will be filled with tears from the haunting years, alone I'll drown and be killed by my taunting fears..

I'm a hypocrite as a savior to be, I love her but someone needs to save her from me..
