Trust
Phloxx Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just want to be once your own boss
You fight against your own heart
That’s full of mistrust
Believe me when I say there’s somebody
Who loves you
Can’t you believe and trust in this man?
Can you hear my voice?
Do you feel the power?
He gives you the choice
It could be your last hour
If you allow that
The world’s arresting your soul
You reach the darkest deeps
No way to escape
Believe me when I say there’s somebody
Who loves you
Can’t you believe and trust in this man?
