To Be Honest Lyrics

I'm scared to wander outside major keys
So I sing a song that I wrote just to please
The fools and the fakes, afraid just like me
To be honest

I play my part with a smile painted on
At best I'm a clown, at worst I'm a con
Convincing the crowd and myself nothing's wrong
To be honest

My soul is trembling
Knowing they're listening
But all that I need to be
Is all that you're making me

[Chorus]
I'm leaving the stage
You can turn my lights down
The curtain is closed
I'm taking my bow
Lord, help me remember
Cause I forget how
To be honest

I rewrote my story without tragedies
Left out the lines that reveal I am weak
Erased every reason for you to save me
To be honest

My soul is trembling
Knowing they're listening
But all that I need to be
Is all that you're making me
