Bedroom Honesty Lyrics
teeth mark bruise on your arm
that's what he gave you
no chocolates in a heart
just the same old screw
when you take off your clothes
and realize you have no more secrets
i hope it's a surprise
that this is as intimate as it gets
i'm trying to sleep, why don't you
leave me alone
you can call me a creep if you want to
we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before
you have an image of him sleeping
i can see that being sad
give a mouthful of pennies to remind him
of what he once had
complaining you turn all the women you know
into one
remember all the mean things that they said
or done
i'm trying to sleep, why don't you
leave me alone
you can call me creep if you want to
we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before
you'll be with your one truth love,
and you'll realize it's not a dream
but it won't be enough,
and you'll wonder what's left unseen
you'll hate yourself and you'll treat him bad
until you finally leave
to prepare for a lifetime of pretending
to search for a thing that you already had
a person you could fall in love with
if they weren't already in your bed
i'm trying to sleep, why don't you
leave me alone
you can call me creep if you want to
we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before
that's what he gave you
no chocolates in a heart
just the same old screw
when you take off your clothes
and realize you have no more secrets
i hope it's a surprise
that this is as intimate as it gets
leave me alone
you can call me a creep if you want to
we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before
i can see that being sad
give a mouthful of pennies to remind him
of what he once had
complaining you turn all the women you know
into one
remember all the mean things that they said
or done
leave me alone
you can call me creep if you want to
we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before
and you'll realize it's not a dream
but it won't be enough,
and you'll wonder what's left unseen

if they weren't already in your bed

we can smell our own
if you think anything that you tell me
i didn't already know
it's just some version of ? honesty
i've heard it before

i don't know about the "we can smell our own" line... because i don't know what that actually means, how exactly it makes sense...
i've seen it interpreted as "just a version of bedroom honesty"... but i don't understand how anyone can hear him saying BEDROOM there.
oh, "we can smell our own" probably means something like "it takes one to know one"
oh, "we can smell our own" probably means something like "it takes one to know one"
Its just a version of brutal or cruel? honesty.
