Betrayal

What do you mean I can't trust anyone?
Why do I have to keep things to myself forever more?
How is it no one takes care of their own house
Before going in to someone else's
Now I must find my own path
Now I must rely on my own choices
To guide myself through the darkness
For fear of being betrayed again
The pain is there
So is the fear
Why can't I bring anyone near my heart?
They claim to understand
But all they want is to control
To insinuate and regulate
Now I must find my own path
Now I must rely on my own choices
To guide myself through the darkness
For fear of being betrayed again
I thought I had left the darkness
Finally to break free of this haunting night
Funny when I stopped to smell the roses
All that crap came back to me
Now I must find my own path
Now I must rely on my own choices
To guide myself through the darkness
For fear of being betrayed again
Why have you betrayed me?
Was I not good enough?
Or strong enough
It seems I was convient enough
Or is it you who is betrayed
Now I must find my own path
Now I must rely on my own choices
To guide myself through the darkness
For fear of being betrayed again
Sorry if this has been said earlier....What does it matter what Mr. Martin was doing that night, what does it matter what Mr. Zimmerman was doing that night....What matters is that inexorably 2 families are changed forever, our nation is once again being divided by painful memories of OUR shared past...What matters is not the armchair quarterbacking that is going on right now...what matters is what WE are going to do about it....How are WE going to fix this situation so that WE ALL can live in peace....I know in my heart we have such great potential....Can we stop the mud slinging and hate mongering long enough to start a true dialogue....Can we agree to disagree and treat each other with respect, love and kindness that we all deserve?
