Would You Believe

Would you believe me if I told you?
If I stared you in the face and said to you,
I turned a piece of rock to Gold;
and you turned it back to Dust!
That you turned all my diamonds to rust;
and diminished all my trust!
That I rose up again and still you cut me to the crust!
Everyday I work to make myself better,
But I am building someone else!
I have broken myself over and over,
Effortlessly built an empire that only serves me pain.
A kingdom who's king only demands more;
making every thing I do end up in vain.
