They don’t trust me
They don’t believe me
They blame me
They hurt me
I don’t know why
Everytime I try
I fail
It’s a never ending struggle
And I’m the one who loses
I give in to my feelings
My desires
My wishes
I want to be strong
But I know I am weak
They don’t trust me
They don’t believe me
They blame me
They hurt me
They say it’s my fault
That I’m selfish
And in denial
They don’t know how hard it is
They don’t trust me
The don’t believe me
Why should they
I lie
