I trusted them, and hurt I got
What happened was what I hadn't thought
Afraid I got, more, day by day
Things don't just go the way you plan
But what was wrong, where did I lack
What is it I can't understand?
The day then came, alone I was
No one to tell me what was right
Where were the people I had met?
This darkness really gives a fright
That's who we are, humans, we're strange
Putting our trust in mortal beings
A walking dummy, just made of clay
Who ends up being castaway!
I turned myself away from them
On whom do I now put my trust?
The friendship that seemed iron-strong
The shortest time, it took to rust
But then I saw, a hope there was,
Which could bring out the best in me!
Why did I not see it before?
How lost I was in fantasy!
That, which a mountain could not take
We took it and we then forgot
What honor was given to us!
And how we kept it far apart!
Is this it that I need in life?
Was I missing this all that time?
The messed up thoughts all in my head
Suddenly starting to make a rhyme...
Holding to strings society sets
How wrong I was to drift away
They only need you for some time
And after that you're thrown away
I then went back to search the truth
Everything started to come together
Stopped worrying of what is in this world
Started worrying of what is forever
The trust I needed, I now have
It makes me strong, it gives me hope
True love is the reward I get
I now hold firmly Allah's rope.
