Honest by The Six Sevens Lyrics

All I ever wanted was the truth kid
But my eyes roll so much now I'll just close my eyelids
All I ever got were made up stories
So now I'm done with all of my allegories

I know we're not the same
I know that I'm to blame
I know that I can't promise
But at least I'm being honest

I thought I'd try to help and lead by example
But you always have excuses, "you've got your hands full"
You hate it all I do is criticize you
But you can't even look me in the eyes... You

You say I'm being lame
But at least I know my name
You think that its a contest
I just want you to be honest

So please don't tell me
The same story
Save it for someone down the line
Who you can undermine
But not for me
I hope that one day you, you fucking realize
That every day is not sun and blue skies
I can see right through your plastic smile
I hope all this has been worth your while

You say your having fun
I tell you I am done
I know that I'm not flawless
But at least I'm being honest

So please don't tell me
The same story
Save it for someone down the line
Who you can undermine
But not for me

You'd rather fake it all
Than be yourself
Drown in alcohol
For someone else

So please don't tell me
The same story
Save it for someone down the line
Who you can undermine
But not for me, not for me
So please don't tell me
The same story
Cause its long and overdue
For you to just be you
And just be honest
