Trust Lyrics

Like the winds, blowing
Changes, fast and growing
I knew better then
I knew better then

Words that hurt the ones you lovin'
Hatred for who you're becomin'
I knew better then yes
I knew better then

To Trust myself
To trust someone else
To trust the lies that slip from my mouth
Trust the heart I'm so quick to sell

Yes I knew better then
I knew better then
To trust love again

Memories who won't stop stinging
Promises I could't believe in
I knew better then
I knew better then

To trust myself
To trust someone else
To trust the doubt in the back of my mind
Trust the trail of pain left behind
Yes, I knew better then
I knew better then to trust love again

And I'm so quick to lose
What was never mine to keep
And I cannot stand (oh) what's broken under me
I don't know how to forgive
Myself for everything that I missed
Learn trust

Like the winds, blowing
Changes, fast and growing
I knew better then
I knew better then

Trust

The opening track of Christina Perri's Hand or Heart album was also the first song she wrote for the project. "I sat at the piano and wrote this song called 'Trust,' she told Radio.com . "As soon as I did I had a eureka moment, and I immediately knew what I wanted to say."

The album title was inspired by various failed relationships, where Perri had switched between trusting her head and her heart, and she couldn't figure out which was the right way to go. "I was trying to find the right thing and make the right choices, and because none of the relationships worked out I felt as though I just didn't trust me," she told Radio.com. "So I wrote a song about it. In that moment when I wrote the song, I named the album Head or Heart."

"I knew that 'Trust' would be the first song on the album and set up the album," she added, "and I knew that the theme of the album would be split into two - into head songs and into heart songs."
