Be Honest

I used to wish and hope and dream
That I could be your man
And everything in between

And when I saw you it blew my mind
It's like I met your soul
At an unpleasant time

Love that's not how it's supposed to go
Cause when I'm so much to you
You won't even know

But when I speak up to show you're loved
You bite and lash out at me
Because you're vulnerable

So You say be honest
You say don't lie
But when I open up
I'm a soft guy

So you dance around me
You turn my head to lies
Cause a man with feelings
Is crucified

It's so hard to tell you what I'm feeling
Cause what I'm fearing
I'll be less appealing
Yeah

You come and ask me what's wrong
But when I open up
You think I'm not so strong

Cause a man is judged on who he is
The amount of weight he carries
Will never be so clear

So we just keep it all inside
Because it's easier
To hold on to our pride

So You say be honest
You say don't lie
But when I open up
I'm a soft guy

So you dance around me
You turn my head to lies
Cause a man with feelings
Is crucified

So You say be honest
You say don't lie
But when I open up
I'm a soft guy

So you dance around me
You turn my head to lies
Cause a man with feelings
Is crucified
