Why Can't We Be Honest
Ever since I stepped out
Everything's been going wrong
Tried to scream, let it out
Putting it down in a song
Spent a year hanging here
Living scared to make a stand
Play the game, everyone's the same
Pulling punches on demand
I tried to fit in
I tried to make sense
I tried everything and now
I'm so tired of talking about myself
Fight the pull to sell your soul
Open your eyes
Lay it down, lose yourself
We are not alone
Why, why can't we be honest
Growing sick of the politics
Give me more than killing time
You turn yourself into someone else
You've got to lose it to find it out
Tried to be safe, I tried to be real
I tried everything and now
I'm so tired of talking about myself
Maybe it's time to get things back
To bridge the gap to love, love
Maybe we'll find
To lose it all, to let it go
To simply find your soul
