Trust
Joel T. Hamilton Lyrics

Some love is just a lie of the heart
Some people falsely think they love someone, but in reality, it is just an infatuation

The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
The love between two people has turned into something cold, even though it started with a lot of passion

And they may not want it to end
Even though they don't want their love to end, it still might

But it will it's just a question of when
Their love will end at some point, it's only a matter of time

I've lived long enough to have learned
Through personal experiences, I have come to learn

The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
If you get too close to something, you will get hurt

But that won't happen to us
I have enough trust in our love to know that it won't end badly

'Cause it's always been a matter of trust
Our love has always been about trust

Now I know you're an emotional girl
I understand that you are someone who feels things strongly

It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
You have been through a lot, but you have managed to keep believing in the goodness of the world

But I can't offer you proof
I can't give you any evidence to prove something

But you're going to face a moment of truth
You will have to confront a moment where you will have to decide whether or not you trust our love

It's hard when you're always afraid
Being constantly afraid is difficult

You just recover when another belief is betrayed
When someone you trusted betrays you, it can be hard to recover

So break my heart if you must
If necessary, you can hurt me emotionally

It's a matter of trust
It all boils down to trust

You can't go the distance
You won't be able to maintain a relationship

With too much resistance
If you are too skeptical and don't trust me, the relationship won't work

I know you have doubts
I am aware that you are uncertain about our relationship

But for God's sake don't shut me out
Please don't completely ignore me/our relationship

This time you've got nothing to lose
You don't stand to lose anything this time

You can take it, you can leave it, whatever you choose
You have complete control over this situation

I won't hold back anything
I won't keep anything a secret from you

And I'll walk away a fool or a king
The outcome of our relationship will either leave me feeling like a fool or a king

Some love is just a lie of the mind
Some people falsely believe that they love someone with their mind, but it isn't genuine

It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
It is like pretending something is real until it inevitably becomes clear it isn't

And some might have learned to adjust
Some may have learned to adapt to a less than genuine love

But then it never was a matter of trust
However, in those cases, it was never about trust to begin with

I'm sure you're aware love
I am confident that you are aware

We've both had our share of
We both have experienced

Believing too long
Holding onto the belief in something for too long

When the whole situation was wrong
When the circumstances weren't in our favor

Some love is just a lie of the soul
Some people falsely believe that they love someone with their soul, but it isn't genuine

A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
A never-ending conflict to gain complete control over the other person

After you've heard lie upon lie
After hearing nothing but lies

There can hardly be a question of why
It's not hard to see why someone wouldn't trust love after experiencing nothing but lies

But that can't happen to us
That won't happen to us

'Cause it's always been a matter of trust
Our relationship has always been built on trust

It's a matter of trust
Trust is at the core of our relationship

It's always been a matter of trust
Trust has always been important to our relationship

It's a matter of trust
It all boils down to trust
