To Be Honest Lyrics by Ryan Warnick

2018

[Verse 1]
If I’m being honest
Ever since last August
I’ve been practicing a smile
And my mirror’s getting tired of it
If I’m being honest
I think that you’re flawless
In that way you always smile
With the corners of your eyes
If I’m being honest
This year has been the longest
And it’s taking all I have
To try to be strong
But I don’t want to move on
[Hook]
To be honest
Every time I see you
I still feel you in my arms
To be honest
The distance between you and me
Is way farther than it needs to be
To be honest
I shouldn’t have waited this long
And I feel like fool
But I need to be honest with you
[Verse 2]
I know that honesty is the best policy
Don’t want to leave you in the dark
But the light won’t give you an apology
And it’s really hard to say I’m sorry
When I meant every single word I said to you
I was shaking at the knees when I told you the truth
And you fully knew that there was nothing you could do
When you love someone patience
Becomes a commodity
That’s why you deserve my honesty
[Hook]
To be honest
Every time I see you
I still feel you in my arms
To be honest
The distance between you and me
Is way farther than it needs to be
To be honest
I shouldn’t have waited this long
And I feel like fool
But I need to be honest with you
[Verse 3]
Maybe I’m just prideful and selfish if perception is reality
And maybe I’m a fool who only needs a taste of gravity
To pull me back to earth and learn to eat my words
Instead of living with my head up in the clouds just like the birds
That sing the songs I’m trying to rip off
I didn’t mean to tip off a battle full of high school comparisons
When I shipped off and
I thought that feelings could be buried deep within
Without resurfacing may be I should just lift off again from earth
Like I did a couple years ago you probably saw it as a miracle
The girl of your dreams was yours and I was sitting idly by
Becoming individual and somewhat lyrical
And learning how to keep a promise
And how to be honest
