Trust Issues

[Verse]
Mind's a maze, whispers creeping in the hall,
Paranoia heavy, like a shadow on the wall.
Trust so fragile, shatters with a glance,
Every handshake feeling like a dagger's dance.
[Chorus]
Quiet these thoughts, voices in the mist,
Snakes in the grass, every friend’s a twist.
Heart's on lockdown, fortress with a moat,
Drowning in the doubt, can't stay afloat.
[Verse 2]
Third eye open, scanning for the scheme,
Dreams feel tainted, can't trust the dream.
Even in the mirror, the gaze feels cold,
Who can I trust when my own soul’s sold?
[Bridge]
Walls closing in, silence turns loud,
Trust a thin thread in a faithless crowd.
Thoughts like vultures circling the feast,
Begging for a moment of inner peace.
[Chorus]
Quiet these thoughts, voices in the mist,
Snakes in the grass, every friend’s a twist.
Heart's on lockdown, fortress with a moat,
Drowning in the doubt, can't stay afloat.
[Outro]
Hands together, praying for the calm,
War inside my head, detonating bombs.
If trust’s a risk, then I’m taking none,
Solitude my solace, till this battle’s done.
