How can I learn to trust

When everything I’ve known’s a lie?

How can I learn to love

When my first love said goodbye?

No, really, tell me how.

How can I know right

When everything around is wrong?

How can I feel welcomed

When I don’t know where I belong?

No, really, tell me how.

How can I prosper

When they all want me to fail?

How can I show my potential

Sitting here in jail?

No, really, tell me how.

Actually, don’t tell me how

Since I’m still in my youth.

Wait till I’m old enough

to handle the truth.
