Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth - You Can Trust Me Now

[Intro: Bobby Gillespie]
I put myself in some dangerous situations
Suffered black dog years of degradation, humiliation, incapacitation
I leave it up to your imagination
Feelings of guilt, shame, and remorse flattened me like a horse
I was conquered, finished, done

[Chorus: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now

[Verse 1: Bobby Gillespie]
Haunted by the ghosts of those
I hurt and I abused
In a different lifetime
In another suit and shoes

Behind the mask of anarchy
The wolf inside me grew
Declared war on my sanity
My lies became my truths

[Chorus: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now
[Verse 2: Jehnny Beth]
The speed of life was much too fast
You crashed at every bridge
Hiroshima'd your senses
In abattoirs of flesh

Like a sailor out on shore leave
Too wrecked to find his ship
Drunk on your stupidity
It all turned into piss

[Chorus: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now

[Verse 3: Bobby Gillespie]
I tried to live the dream
And manage every scene
And for a while, I did with style
Delusional it seems

[Verse 4: Jehnny Beth]
But your sick soul did sing
It poisoned everything
The seed took root, bore bitter fruit
You turned into someone I didn't know
[Chorus: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now
You can trust, you can trust
You can trust me now

[Outro: Bobby Gillespie]
All those times, times we died
Dying, just to feel alive
You can trust me now
