You Can Trust Me Now
Redemption Unveiled: Trust Emerges from the Ashes of Desolation
Lyrics
I put myself in some dangerous situations
I've placed myself in risky situations
Suffered black dog years of degradation, humiliation, incapacitation
Endured years of depression, humiliation, and incapacity
I leave it up to your imagination
Leaving the interpretation to your imagination
Feelings of guilt, shame, and remorse flattened me like a horse
Overwhelmed by guilt, shame, and remorse, akin to being flattened like a horse
I was conquered, finished, done
I was defeated, completed, and finished
You can trust
Emphasizing the present trustworthiness, a contrast to the past
You can trust
-You can trust me now
-Haunted by the ghosts of those I hurt and I abused
Tormented by the ghosts of those I've harmed and mistreated
In a different lifetime
Reflecting on a past self, hidden behind an anarchic mask, as an internal wolf grew
In another suit and shoes
-Behind the mask of anarchy
-The wolf inside me grew
-Declared war on my sanity
Declared war on sanity, where lies transformed into perceived truths
My lies became my truths
-You can trust
Repetition of the assertion that trust can be placed in the present
You can trust
-You can trust me now
-You can trust
-You can trust
-You can trust me now
-The speed of life was much too fast
Describing a reckless, chaotic life filled with crashes, sensory overload, and self-destructive behaviors
You crashed at every bridge
-Hiroshima'd your senses
-In abattoirs of flesh
-Like a sailor out on shore leave
-Too wrecked to find his ship
-Drunk on your stupidity
-It all turned into piss
-You can trust
Reiteration of the plea for trust amidst acknowledgment of past recklessness
You can trust
-You can trust me now
-You can trust
-You can trust
-You can trust me now
-I tried to live the dream
Attempts to live an idealized life, managing scenes with style, though realizing the delusion
And manage every scene
-And for a while, I did with style
-Delusional it seems
-But your sick soul did sing
The impact of a corrupted soul, poisoning everything and transforming the person
It poisoned everything
-The seed took root, bore bitter fruit
-You turned into someone I didn't know
-You can trust
Repeating the assurance of present trustworthiness amid acknowledgment of past betrayals
You can trust
-You can trust me now
-You can trust
-You can trust
-You can trust me now
-All those times, times we died
Reflection on past hardships, deaths, and the pursuit of feeling alive, ending with a renewed plea for trust
Dying, just to feel alive
-You can trust me now
