I may have trust issues
but it is not without reason
my mind will always function the same
Despite the changing season
Standing away from the crowd
but not standing out
join in if I mean feel like it
Or catch me wandering about
never looking into your eyes
unless you've gained my respect
Banishing you from my side
because you've cut off your own neck
YES I have trust issues
so with you I will talk
but if it comes to a lonely road
By myself I will walk.

This was a point in my life when I started to see who were my real friends, and who were not.
