Honest

Boy, know your place

Lies do not become us

Real is more attractive than a slick and polished mask

Girl, dig down deep

I know there's more between us

There's bound to be a question

You're just dying for me to ask

If you can be honest

I can be too

If you'll take the first step

I'll follow you through

But no one wants to bleed

No one wants to hide

No one wants to hurt alone inside

Child, don't close your eyes

The truth contains much beauty

And though it scars your soul

It can heal the wounds it makes

You've been deceived to think

That pain is to be dreaded

And you've got nothing left

It'll give more than it takes

If you can't find a peace

I'll help find it for you

I don't know how

But one thing that's sure

Is I won't leave you now

If you can be honest

I can be too

If you take the first step

I'll follow you through

No one wants to bleed

No one wants to hide

No one wants to hurt alone inside
