Analysis of Why should I trust you?



Why should I trust you?

Is it because you saved my life, and help me avoid darkness by seeing the light?

Why should I trust you?

Because of all my saving you secure, and keep me from going bankrupt in which I fear?

Why should I trust you?

Because the love of my life will always be your friend, and you will never develop feelings during no circumstance?

Why should I trust you?

Because to me you would never lie, and everything that is wrong, you will always make right?

Why should I trust you?

Because the secrets of mine you conceal, and to no one you reveal.

Why should I trust you?

I don't trust you!
