Broken Trust
Arise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You broke my trust
I won't be able to trust again
You're not my friend no more
It was all a lie
You killed her
It does not matter
If I pulled the trigger
You betrayed me with your lust
You took my love
You killed me and did not realize
You killed yourself?
A clever deceiver?
You're a bug under my boot!

(Chorus)
Liar, you broke my confidence
You set my world on fire
It has left me scars
Liar, I thought that you where pure
I will never learn to trust, anyone again!

I did not want to
But it felt good to unleash my anger
Revenge, through the barrel of my gun
She looks so innocent
Against the wall in a pool of blood
I got my revenge
But I will forever carry the loss!

(Chorus)
Liar, you broke my confidence
You set my world on fire
It has left me scars
Liar, I thought that you where pure
I will never learn to trust, anyone again!

I was betrayed
I feel hollow
All I had, is now a dream





LIAR! LIAR! LIAR! LIAR!
