Honesty Lyrics by Ashley & Jackson

Solid Gold

1991

[Verse 1]
It happened:
I started something that I don't believe in
In my "inspiration" I didn't look for a reason
Someone new to get into
I made this mistake over and over
(Over and over)
It was a new direction I'd been meaning to take
[Chorus]
I am not inclined to believe what I see
(My choice is to read between the lines)
If you ever find that you believe in me
(You've got to open up your eyes)
[Verse 2]
There's no need to justify the way that I see it
When I try to criticise I'm never sincere
Never knew what I was into
I made this mistake over and over
(Over and over)
There was never doubt
That my honesty was at stake
[Chorus]
Well, I am not inclined to believe what I see
(My choice is to read between the lines)
If you ever find that you believe in me
(You've got to open up your eyes)
[Verse 3]
(Don't ever)
Look for a meaning that you didn't intend
(Don't ever)
Put your trust in someone
If you don't have and understanding
(If you don't have and understanding)
[Chorus & Outro]
I am not inclined to believe what I see
(My choice is to read between the lines)
If you ever find that you believe in me
(You've got to open up your eyes)
Don't be inclined to believe what you see
(My choice is to read between the lines)
If you ever find that you believe in me
(You've got to open up your eyes)
Don't be inclined to believe what you see
(My choice is to read between the lines)
If you ever find that you believe in me
(You've got to open up your eyes)
