Honesty Lyrics

You're preaching to a choir, not an audience
They're feigning interest as a courtesy
Well don't extend such courtesy to me

And I recall the morning when I woke to recognize
This was all pretend
Well it's a just a phony way of feeling validated

When everybody speaks, everyone agrees
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty
We will remain in this closed circuit
And we will never leave
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty

You're spending all your time
Winning the hearts and minds of the same old thirty people
Telling the same old jokes that don't extend beyond your social circle

When everybody speaks, everyone agrees
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty
We will remain in this closed circuit
And we will never leave
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty
When everybody speaks, everyone agrees
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty
We will remain in this closed circuit
And we will never leave
Let us just admit, let us just admit
Let us just admit we can't handle honesty

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
