Trust

Verse 1: I left the ground to chase your storm, Built a ladder from my veins, not the norm. Every rung, a risk, a wound I’d bare, And you, the sky, pretended to care. Pre-Chorus: I felt the pulse of the stars align, Thought your shadow was the shape of mine. But you let the air out, left me to crawl, You knew the edge—and still let me fall. Chorus: How could you twist the knife so slow? I handed you the reins; you watched me go. This isn’t love, it’s a crooked scheme, Trust’s just a word in someone else’s dream. Verse 2: Your voice was a map I tried to trace, But every line was a new mistake. I stood at the edge where the wild things grow, You swore it was home, but it wasn’t, though. Pre-Chorus: Your silence now, it screams too loud, I see the truth in the shifting clouds. You played the thief in my open skies, Stole the sun, fed me lies. Chorus: How could you twist the knife so slow? I handed you the reins; you watched me go. This isn’t love, it’s a crooked scheme, Trust’s just a word in someone else’s dream. Bridge: Every warning was a song I ignored, Played the strings ‘til they couldn’t roar. Now I’m the echo you’ll never face, And you’re the ghost in an empty space. Chorus (repeat): How could you twist the knife so slow? I handed you the reins; you watched me go. This isn’t love, it’s a crooked scheme, Trust’s just a word in someone else’s dream. Outro: I’ll burn the ladder, bury the cost, Some wars are fought just to feel the loss. And you, the sky, will always betray, But I’m done with you—I’ll find my own way
