Jay POV

When Julie, Flynn, and Willie caught me up on what had happened, I told them what I saw and heard when I was brainwashed. "When Luke was singing He's The Player, I was forced to be silent so they could fall in his trap. But now they are in it, all they can play is 'Trusting Isn't In My Vocabulary'. My first song I wrote after I died, I haven't played it in like.."

"5 years..I was in Brooklyn and heard you playing for the first time for your mother in the park." I tilt my head at Willie along with everyone else, "Caleb was looking for a new act and since he couldn't get the Phantoms back, he told me to branch out further and you were the only ghost I could see in a 1,500 mile radius."

I asked him why I couldn't see him, "A ghost can't see another ghost until 3 months in..Alex was just lucky to see me." Everyone was shocked, "Ahhhhhhh!" Yelled Alex as he fell into the room we were in. "They. Are brainwashed." He coughed as they entered. "Who said you can change the tune, this tune is great on the loop."

They both had an evil grin on their face, "the only way to stop them is for me to sing it..", "then sing it.." said Willie.

"Do it for us. I know the lyrics..they don't..try and be more open and maybe you can say the words and their names." I sighed and breathed out, well it all came down to this, me singing the song I never wanna sing again.

Trusting Isn't In My Vocabulary

First things first
trusting one another
isn't a thing I do or say
My father had been pulling the trigger
It had twisted my fate

He ruined my dreams
He blinded by me the bullets
If you can't see the truth
Just know trusting isn't in my vocabulary
Vocabulary
Vocabulary
Just call my name,

Then the night I died
Was due to my obnoxious father
He was a horrible Devil - no warnings, no signs
Judgment day and the a naive demon arrives
Eventually, he commit a crime

If you can't see the truth
Just know that trusting isn't in my vocabulary
Vocabulary
Vocabulary
Just call my name,

Is it the end, my friends?
Say goodbye and see you tomorrow
but in the news you see me by the liberty
No, no, please, no
Don't be the truth

He was always trusting until he killed me
So if you can't see the truth
Just know that trusting isn't in my vocabulary
Vocabulary
Vocabulary
Just call my name,
And look into the sky

After I finished singing there was someone with keys trying to get in the door, "How dare you sing and not on stage. You may be shamed with guilt for not trusting one, but look at them than look at me. They are just a band from 1995."

Caleb had barged in speaking as everyone except for Luke and Reggie were against the wall. "I trust them more than you. You trapped me under my will, as for them they let me play things, though my lies are lies, I know the truth is that I do trust them with my life. I trust Alex, Reggie, Luke, Flynn, Willie, and even Julie, the only person I don't trust is you Caleb."

Reggie and Luke shudder and stopped playing their instruments. I looked at my wrist as the tattoos faded away into the sky. "See, was that hard at all?" I stared at them and cried. "My mom..would be so proud and thankful for you guys. She hasn't seen me being able to trust someone.."

They smiled, "Are you seriously taking their side against me?" I ignored Caleb as we all walked out, "The offer still stands if you want to be the lead singer.." Julie looked at me and handed me a different type of microphone.
