Someone I Could Trust

Can you keep a secret?

I'm having some trouble
With a friend
Yeah, you know them,

It was a misunderstanding
Right, but now they really are angry
I don't want you to tell them anything
I just need to talk with you

Someone I can trust

I feel so tense,
They hurt me but I think I hurt them
Please don't tell them I said that
I want to say I'm sorry by myself

To Someone I once knew

They're yelling now
They know I spoke with you
You told them
You bastard

Someone I could trust

It doesn't matter
If your intentions were good
It doesn't matter
If you thought it would help

Someone broke my trust

I wanted to talk
Get it off my chest
Not have it announced

Trust is hard to get

You won't get it again
You wanted to help
You told them it was misunderstanding
You just made it worse

Thanks

Betrayal's all I need today

Author notes

I was talking with my friend once. About this fight I was having with my other friend. This is on MSN. I say I just really need to talk with you about it. This horrible misunderstanding. He says, okay. I say, please don't talk to them about this. He says, I promise. When I'm done spilling my guts the friend I'm fighting with suddenly yells about me about talking behind her back. She was talking to the same guy. She was spilling her guts too

The difference, he didn't tell me.

He told her, even though he promised not to.

She was talking about how she felt about me to him, but it seemed I couldn't do the same about her, the argument got worse.

Now I can never tell him anything again, even though he's a good person and tries to do right to everyone

Here's the lesson, don't trust a peacemaker with secrets

Kinda sad now that I think about it...
