Honest question

[Intro]
Can I be honest, just for a while?
Lay my heart out, no disguise, no denial

[Verse 1]
Maybe I could be your number one, your main, your priority
Not just someone to pass the time, only when you feel lonely
I see through the lies, the masks you often wear
Sad to say, the only mistake I see, is thinking you truly care

[Pre-Chorus]
You point the finger, blame it all on me
But I know the truth, it’s you who’s never free
Turned around, you deny, you shift the blame
But I could tell, it’s just a game you’re playing

[Chorus]
Can’t I just be happy, can you be honest, please?
No more tears, no more pain, just a desire for peace
Hurting me, breaking down, does it even matter?
I need real love, not this broken shattered

[Bridge]
Is it a game? Or do you just not care?
I’m tired of pretending, tired of despair
Honest words, a reckless hope that you might change
But all I get are echoes in a world so strange

[Outro]
Maybe one day you’ll see, what you mean to me
Until then I’ll stand here, longing to be free
From the shadows of this doubt and pain
Hoping you’ll be honest, and not play the game again
