Wanted To Get Back What



People want to get back what...
The truth.
And its honesty.
People want to get back what...
Integrity and credibility.
People want to get back what...
Trust.
Without trust to doubt.
But where did all of this stuff go.
To come back from.

Wanting to want back what...
The truth.
And its honesty.
Wanting to be getting back what...
Integrity and credibility.
People want the getting back what...
Trust.
Without it to doubt.
But where,
Did all of this stuff go.
To come back from.

Many live to get back what...
The truth.
And its honesty..
But where did trust and honesty go..
To come back from..

Many live to get back what...
Trust.
As if it's a must.
But where did all that trust go.
To come back from!
