You know that feeling in your chest
10...
The one that tells you not to trust anybody
9...
"They're lying" it screams to you
8...
You dont know if it's true or not but its safer to listen
7...
It's safer to listen to that feeling
6...
That way you never get hurt
5...
That way you're never surprised when someone lies
4...
That way no one gets too close to you
3...
no one knows your secrets
2...
No one is trust worthy
1...
They are all liars in your eyes
0...
They are all counting down your days
They are praying for your downfall
They hope you don't remain
They are waiting for when night falls
They want to cause you pain
But you never let them in
You are safer like that right?
But then thats when trouble sets in
The ones that really care
Feel like the feeling isn't mutual
You dont know which ones care
So you are cold and harsh to all
