I sense doubt blooming in your eyes,
the flower of deadly goodbyes.
Promise not to believe those lies.
Trust me.
I fear the envy is greener on the other side,
along with believing that beauty has lied,
Promise not to believe with eyes open wide,
Trust me.
The breeze is forcing you to sway,
your mind is driven by what's not okay,
Promise not to believe what they say.
Trust me.
Petals don't determine if she loves you,
your mind believes only what it wants to,
Promise not to believe what you wish was true.
Trust me.
The sky may persuade you with change,
your thoughts will decide to rearrange,
Promise not to believe what you derange.
Trust me.
