Untrustable
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
you can't trust anyone
cause you're untrustable
how can you trust someone you know can't trust you
you won't help anyone
cause you're unusable
no one can tie you down
you're nobody's fool
and I'd love to see it but it's something you just feel
and I'd like to feel it but it just isn't real
and god is whoever you're performing for
and god is whoever you perform for
you don't like anything cause you're unlikable
all because you're not interested in you anymore
it's so unthinkable cause you don't think of it
how many ideas can fit in your reality
and I'd love to see it but it's something you just feel
and I'd like to feel it but it just isn't real
and I'd love to see it but it's something you just feel
and I'd like to feel it but it just isn't real
and god is whoever you're performing for
and god is whoever you perform for
- Pt. 2 (about someone else)
I know you
feel the things you see you know they're true
what are you gonna do
why can't you
**EMPATHIZE WITH JESUS' POINT OF VIEW**
what are you gonna do
can you feel the darkness shining through
what are you gonna do
why can't you
move yourself like other people do
what are you gonna do
I know you wouldn't be the way you feel if you could choose
what are you gonna do
can you feel the darkness shining through
what are you gonna do
