Honesty

I hate to lie and deceiveif you truly know me

You'd know it's true

You'd know I try to say what i think

You'd know I show it all

But even if you know me

You wouldn't know

How far down the pain and scars go

I only show so much

Honesty

Something my morals try to reach

Something everyone blocks from me

I've heard a friend say

They hate the other

And I have to keep that to myself

Ive heard them say

That I'm annoying

I have to hold that close

I heard someone say it's all for attention

I have to hide my flaws

I hear murmurs in my mind

Things I cannot show

Honesty

Only goes so far

-------------------------------------------------

I'm wide awake

Yet tired

My mind is clear

Yet fogged

My heart is full

Yet dull

My life feels

Like a game

And I'm tired

If being played

Like it's all okay

Like I'm a person

Like they'll win

When I end
