i don't even know what to think anymore
i don't know who to believe
you know i want to go blindly towards the words that you say
cuz they hurt so much less than the tales i hear
but i continue to hear them
they contradict your accounts
and i sit here feeling burned
wondering if i'm now the one being wrapped around a finger
knowing that trust is so hard to build
that i don't want to let it be too easy to knock down
what can i say to make you understand
that this emotional run-around doesn't make us stronger
it only drains me and tears us down
did you do what she said, what you deny
should i doubt what you say
or are you really the same guy that took my heart
who i trusted it with
that did good things with it
or are you taking that heart, that trust and playing with it
knowing it will take shape like putty in your large strong hands
knowing no matter how many times we try to untangle ourselves
try to release our intertwined hearts
our souls won't release their clutches on each other
no matter how far apart we stretch the bands that hold us together
they won't break
and eventually they snap back sending us reeling back towards each other
an emotional wreck of tattered trusts and scattered doubts
of angry questions and cracking hearts
longing for the security of that familiar voice
rushing back trying to mend the damages with sloppy tape
hoping that that will do to hold us back together
you hope the love i have for you will keep me from asking questions
that my desire for what we had will keep me trusting
you know i want your side of the story to be true
because i couldn't imagine you doing what it is that they say
but are you taking advantage of me
do you think your dick will get you everything you want
i'm tired of fighting everyone and everything
so tired of the constant battle
i didn't know that to be in love you had to watch your back
and calculate every word, every thought
and wonder if it's her trying to tear us apart
or you
you trampling upon the foundation we've laid
and then trying to piece it back together before i notice
so who do i believe
who's stories?
when do i open my eyes and see for myself
