[A]

[Verse 1]
[A]"Who can I
[D]trust? All I [C]see [Em]is an empty sky.
Who [D]can I trust? What good's [C]a God
who can't [Em]hear my cries?
Who [D]can I trust? These paper
wall[C]s are [Em]closing in on me.
Who [D]can I trust? Nothing [C]left
[Em]for me to believe.
With [A]crooked compass, you navig[G]ate.
[D]And slanted [C]motive, you [A]narrate.
Cross [G]the lines to twist [D]fate.[C]
[A]Lose the plot as you obdurate[G].
[D]Prop you[C]rself on a tur[A]n of phrase.
What [G]are you hiding, why are you [D]afraid?[C]
[A]I see a bias lurking in your ver[D]bs.[C]
[A]Your actions speak louder
than your [D]word[C]s.
[A]As you allege I must objec[D]t.[C]
[A]You are the cause to the effec[D]t.
Who can I trust? All [C]I see
[Em]is an empty sky.
Who [D]can I trust? What good's [C]a God
[Em]who can't hear my cries?
Who can I [D]trust? These paper [C]wall
[Em]s are closing in on me.
Who [D]can I trust? Nothing [C]left
[Em]for me to believe.
[A]Dot your I's and cross your T's[G].
[D]Build a cag[C]e of words and
[A]throw away the keys.
[G]Paint a picture with [D]foul adjectives.
[C]Pun[A]ish the subject with the subjectiv[G]e.
[D]Steal the sce[C]ne for you[A]r pronouncement
[G]of a sentence for [D]the common [C]nouns.
[A]But you changed the name before the pre[D]dicate[C],
[A]an error of grammatical eti[D]quette.[C]
[A]I stand alone with my indepen[D]dent[C] cla[A]use: she
may be gone but I [D]am not [A]the cause.
You [Bb]left your role with [D]your [G]passive voice.
[C]Our [D]outcome is [C]not your cho[F]ice.
[G]Tried [Bb]to set the t[G]one and tense.
[C]This life [D]in [C]paper th[F]at you have[C]
[G]spent has [C]left [D]you [C]cruel an[F]d d[C]isc[G]ontent.
Rip [C]the pages right [G]out of your book.
Blind [D]to [C]your words, deaf [G]to your hooks.
Es[D]cape the [C]tempo [G]an d the time.
[D]I cut the b[C]ars and fall o[A]ut of my lines.
Who [D]can I trust? All I [C]see is [Em]an empty sky.
Who can [D]I trust? What good's
[C]a God who can't hear [Em]my cries?
Who [D]can I trust? These paper
[C]walls are [Em]closing in on me.
Who [D]can I trust? Nothing
[C]left for [Em]me to believe.
Who [D]can I trust? All [C]I see [Em]is an empty sky.
Who can [D]I trust? What good's
[C]a God who can't hear my [Em]cries?
Who [D]can I trust? These pa[C]per
walls are [Em]closing in on me.
Who [D]can I trust? [C]Nothing left
for me [Em]to beli[A]eve.
