Honest
I'm gonna be honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
Let's start from the moment it all fell apart
I blew up your phone because I felt ignored
To the tune of a song I was undone and raw
And it carried me where I assumed I belonged
To the bottom
To the bottom
I phrased it as "what's wrong with me"
Because I wanted to scream at you and say "no hard feelings"
I needed to hear something you wouldn't say
Just because I'm depressed doesn't make it okay
I'm gonna be honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
I've never been honest with myself
I put all the blame on someone else
I want to be honest
I want to be honest
I want to be honest, honest, honest
We haven't talked in a year
So what makes you think that I'm being sincere
When I say, trust me, I've changed
I'm gonna be honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
I've never been honest with myself
I put all the blame on someone else
It's cost me some love
It's cost me some love
It's cost me some love, love, love
I wanted the good times back when
I didn't know where to stop playing pretend
And we listened to songs on your bed
And exchanged something terrible: lips on the necks
Of best friends
Of best friends
(Never trust someone who says he's)
Honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as...
I've never been honest with myself
I put all the blame on someone else
That person was you
That person was you
That person was you, you, you
We all know love is a dangerous game
But let's cut out the blades and the angst and the blame
And make our apologies carry the weight
I won't waste my energy cursing your name
It's okay that we've gone separate ways
But I honestly hope you don't hurt from the weight
Of my words that I meant with such hateful intent
When I wanted to break you and fuck with your head
And now I can't believe that that used to be me
So I'll leave you with three words, your name and "I'm sorry"
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
Let's start from the moment it all fell apart
I blew up your phone because I felt ignored
To the tune of a song I was undone and raw
And it carried me where I assumed I belonged
To the bottom
To the bottom
I phrased it as "what's wrong with me"
Because I wanted to scream at you and say "no hard feelings"
I needed to hear something you wouldn't say
Just because I'm depressed doesn't make it okay
I'm gonna be honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
I've never been honest with myself
I put all the blame on someone else
I want to be honest
I want to be honest
I want to be honest, honest, honest
We haven't talked in a year
So what makes you think that I'm being sincere
When I say, trust me, I've changed
I'm gonna be honest
When it comes to you I've never been honest
I don't want you to see me as flawless
But I want to do better, honest
I've never been honest with myself
I put all the blame on someone else
It's cost me some love
It's cost me some love
It's cost me some love, love, love
I wanted the good times back when
