and in the heat of the moment
I found myself closing off
trying to retreat back into myself
simply because I was too afraid

now trust isn't in my vocabulary
and even the ones I know won't break me
are now suspects on my list
I need only to look up, not over my shoulder

this is what you've done
soft-spoken, well-dressed and talented
you fed me lines you knew I'd fall for
in order to ignore my cries for rescue

it's a touchy subject
and you would never understand why
I had a dream I had to reveal my secret
and you laughed from the sidelines
because you never believed it to be true

now what kind of situation is this
that I'm getting myself in again
I'm destined for this circle
