[bodytext] => Give me your trust said the god most high, For on my shoulders I support the sky. Trust me to know and to do what is best, And I will take care of the rest. But trust is the sight of a dark seed growing, Trust is the sight of heart’s blood flowing. Trust is the sight of a soul's last breath, Trust is the sight of death. Give me your trust said the queen on her throne, For I must bear the burden all alone. Trust me to lead and to judge and to rule, And no man will think you a fool. But trust is the sound of a grave-dog’s bark, Trust is the sound of betrayal in the dark. Trust is the sound of a soul's last breath, Trust is the sound of death. Give me your trust said the judge in his chair, The burden of punishment is mine alone to bear. Trust me to follow the words of the law, And I’ll see that justice will score. But trust is the taste of old meat rotting, Trust is the taste of foul blood clotting. Trust is the taste of a soul's last breath, Trust is the taste of death. Give me your trust said the mother to her child, For despite my yells my temper is mild. Trust me to help you live your life, And you’ll never find any strife. But trust is the smell of a newly opened grave, Trust is the smell of a hostage late to save, Trust is the smell of a soul's last breath, Trust is the smell of death. Give me your trust said the preacher to the crowd, For I’ll spread your words and cry them loud. Trust me now to lead your worthy cause, And you’ll have no reason to pause. But trust is the feel of darkening years, Trust is the feel of falling tears. Trust is the feel of a soul's last breath, Trust is the feel of death.
