Honestly

I tore my heart out for a piece of your story
You lit my sky up the one true star
I could bring you swift and burning glory
You say that's not the kind of hero you are

You look at me and you seem so nervous
I look at you and my heart beats fast
You say my methods don't quite suit your purpose
Every time we meet we always clash

I keep falling short of every expectation
I guess I'll never be good enough
You say I've cheated when I come up undefeated
Disappointment must be tough

Honestly, I think I might love you
Cause though I despise you
I still idolize you
And I wonder, would that surprise you
Would you finally come around

Every day that I'm not beside you
I feel I could die
but I think I could fly too
Honestly, I'm still gonna find you
And I'll put you in the ground

I have never been the same since the first time
You called my name
And I promise on that day
It'll be the last thing that you say

You flash a smile, what am I supposed to do
With that? You say "good work", what does that mean?
You say "what have you done", I still don't understand you
You turn away and leave me unseen

Don't you think I deserve a little more
Than what I got, than what you're giving me now
Get on your knees, you've got a lot to answer for
This has gone on longer than I can allow

I have fallen short of every expectation
And yet, I'm still the one who gets it done
You don't believe me but we both know that you need me
I think I've earned a little fun

Honestly, you think you're so perfect
And though you'd deserve it
I don't know if you're worth it
And I wonder if I should burn it all
Would that get you out of my head

Like a fire, you're all-consuming
Your legend is blooming
So I've been assuming
That you know just what you've been doing
When you've got me seeing red

I have never been the same since the first time
You called my name
And I promise on that day
It'll be the last thing that you say

I can't leave well enough alone
When the future's shining in your eyes
You play my heartstrings
I'd cut them out if I were wise

Won't you consider just once doing things my way
It won't be perfect but we won't have to wait another day
To make a difference, to close the distance
Why won't you listen
Listen to me

Honestly, I think I might love you
Cause though I despise you
I still idolize you
And I wonder, would that surprise you
Would you finally come around

Every day that I'm not beside you
I feel I could die
but I think I could fly too
Honestly, I'm still gonna find you
And I'll put you in the ground

Honestly, you think you're so perfect
And though you'd deserve it
I don't know if you're worth it
And I wonder if I should burn it all
Would that get you out of my head

Like a fire, you're all-consuming
Your legend is blooming
So I've been assuming
That you know just what you've been doing
When you've got me seeing red

I have never been the same since the first time
You called my name
And I promise on that day
It'll be the last thing that you say
