Honestly speaking

Honestly speaking
~
You can say what you like
To myself or the bus driver
To the man in the shop
I doubt he even cares
But honestly speaking
Where honesty’s concerned
You need to speak to yourself
Clear and forthright
You can’t hide behind a lie
It will haunt you
That secret truth you denied
To yourself and to others
It’s inescapable
So speak up and be open
Be honest at least to yourself
If not me, the next man
Or the one after him
It’s yourself, it’s you
You will always know
And knowing is hard work
So being honest, honestly
You can say what you like
As long as you’re true
To you and yourself
In the very end

Too Official

Give someone some piece of your mind.
Shine it, shine what youve been assigned.
Has your identity sold out?
Sit in the back and make no sound,
this earth will swallow you down.
Honest it makes you sick.
You dont act on what you thinks right.
Honestly want to kick down,
doors that keep you in.
Let your hair down.
Sometimes relax your stiff posture.
Or so they say, all work no play make you dull.
Chance to change the patterns were born to.
A fear of appearing too concerned,
try to speak, but the words just get stuck.
Honest it makes you sick.
You dont act on what you thinks right.
Honestly want to kick down,
doors that keep you in.
Each time you get to raise your hand for changes you dont know your luck,
so put yourself to use like,
you were taught by, by your heroes.
You speak your mind, thats something.
You speak your mind, thats something.
We dont get it too often

Honestly (Love Ballad) :

If you say you really love me.
Take some time to show you care.
And if you care alot about me.
I will care alot for you.

Honestly! This is how much I love you.
Honestly! This is how much I care.

All your love is what I need.

Because I'm the one who really loves you.
I'm the one who really cares.
Honestly!
Honestly!

Honestly! This is how much I love you.

Not Anymore...

honestly, i like to speak
speaking had long been my past time and i supposed
i have mastered the art of nice conversations where i am not really involved myself.
honestly i like to speak with you and have fun with words, taking games with
accents and twists of wits and
tits,
nothing to spit, just little glitz in finches
honestly i love dialogues but i was once betrayed by your own words and when i was about to take complete action, enforcement or preventive or otherwise
you raised your voice, and arms and blocked my hands
and i was feeling so helpless and made a promise to myself never again shall i
interfere in your affairs
now you are back with some instructions and i told myself this is a toad
this is a horrible snake a killer shark and i pretend that i have no
conclusions

all i can say, perhaps, or maybe
tomorrow or just another day, just wait
but deep within i say

i quit.

I Lost Him

i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him
i lost his heart
the soft touch
i guess i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him.
i lost him
the sinful smile
the trusting strength
i guess i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him.
i lost him
i lost the truth
the honest truth
i lost him
i guess honestly-i never really had him
i lost him
what is worse-is-
i loved him
i still love him
and now because i never told him i loved him,
i lost him.
i guess honestly-i never really had him.

Honestly

Don't act like I don't know what I'm talking about
Don't forget that I'm the one who knows you inside out
You can't even answer when I ask you what's wrong
Just how much longer can the silence go on?

Honestly
Honestly
There's trouble in your heart that you can't hide from me
Talk to me
Cause I can see
Your love ain't what it used to be
If I mean anything to you
Don't be afraid to turn me loose
I'm strong enough to face the truth
Honestly

Just say we stand a chance
And you're willing to try
Or say there's nothing left for you and tell me goodbye
We both know love has got to be an open door
And if it's time for you to fly
I can't hold you any more

Honestly
Honestly
There's trouble in your heart that you can't hide from me
Talk to me
Cause I can see
Your love ain't what it used to be
If I mean anything to you
Don't be afraid to turn me loose
I'm strong enough to face the truth
Honestly

If I mean anything to you
Don't be afraid to turn me loose
I'm strong enough to face the truth

Honestly

I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe the love you talk about with me
Is it true, do I care
Honestly, you can try to wipe the memories aside
But its you that you erase
cause theres no place that I could be without you
Its too far to discard the life I once knew
Honestly, all the weather storms are bringing
Are just a picture of my dreams
cause when I think of you as mine
And allow myself with time
To lead into the life we want
I feel loved, honestly
I feel loved, this honestly
I believe you mean the best that life can bring
I believe in it all
Honestly, you can try
Your heart is just as long as mine
Is it ours to let go
cause theres not place that I could be without you
Its too dark to discard the life I once knew
Honestly, a single wrong is not enough
To cover up the pain in us
cause when I think of you as mine
And allow myself with time
To lead into the life we want
I feel loved, honestly
Ill make a joke so you must laugh
Ill break your heart so you must ask
Is this the way to get us back
I dont know, honestly
I dont know, this honestly
Theres no place that I could be without you
Honestly
Theres no place that I could be without you
Theres no place that I could gleam without you
Theres no place that I could dream without you
Theres no place that I could be without you
Honestly

I Love You, I Honestly Love You

I Love You, Honestly I Love You
Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know
I love you
I honestly love you
You don't have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
This is pure and simple
And you should realize
That it's coming from my heart and not my head
I love you
I honestly love you
I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn't come along everyday
And you shouldn't blow the chance
When you've got the chance to say
I love you
I honestly love you
If we both were born
In anoother place and time
This moment might be ending in a kiss
But there you are with yours
And here I am with mine
So I guess we'll just be leaving it at this
I love you
I honestly love you
I honestly love you

A Tender Lie

As you walk away
As we say goodbye
What I wouldn't give
For a tender lie
Say you'll never stop loving me
Just as if it were true
How much more damage, now honestly
Could one tender lie do
When we fall so far
Are we wrong to try
To keep out the truth
With a tender lie
Say you're gonna come back to me
And I'll believe that it's true
How much more damage, now honestly
Could one tender lie do
Say you're gonna come back to me
And I'll believe that it's true
How much more damage, now honestly
Could one tender lie do
How much more damage, now honestly
Could one tender lie do

I May Admit Finally That I Am Lying

in our short conversation when you ask questions
about me i may answer you some lies and then
you wonder if i am the kind of person who makes lies
to you as i wonder too if you are the kind of person deserving
to be lied by myself, and so i try to figure out the lies
i made before and how honestly you believe them and then
i sort of changing myself, and slowly revealing some of the names
i keep on using, that these names may refer to one and the same
person, which is myself, and you honestly believe me and i am
of course, guilt-stricken and then i slowly unravel other names,
other places, other circumstances, sorting out my life,
page by page, and you listen carefully, and you also tell me
there are two of you, two names, and that is the truth,
and i honestly admit, i had some lies, lies for me to survive you
and this sad world, and then i begin to answer your question
with all honesty: you will regret it, there is more pain to the truth.

Through all time, so far as history informs us, wherever mankind have attempted to live in peace with each other, both the natural instincts, and the collective wisdom of the human race, have acknowledged and prescribed, as an indispensable condition, obedience to this one only universal obligation: viz., that each should live honestly towards every other. The ancient maxim makes the sum of a man’s legal duty to his fellow men to be simply this: "To live honestly, to hurt no one, to give to every one his due." This entire maxim is really expressed in the single words, to live honestly; since to live honestly is to hurt no one, and give to every one his due.

This nation was conceived in liberty and dedicated to the principle - among others - that honest men may honestly disagree; that if they all say what they think, a majority of the people will be able to distinguish truth from error.

Memories

When people speak of memories they say the good usually outshines the bad, unfortunately thats not true in my case and it's actually pretty sad

We're suppose to be different but all we are, are hypocrites, I could write down every bad memory you've caused me, but I'd end up with way too long of a list

There were nights of screaming and shouting and nights where we all caused each other pain, there were nights when not one of us didn't go to bed feeling ashamed

There were nights when I wondered if this was always to be our fate and nights when all of you I finally began to hate

There are days and nights still when the past comes back to haunt me, no matter how hard I try to forget, still these memories come back to taunt me

How long will this go on? I really don't know, but I can guarantee you this, these stupid memories will always be my biggest foe

When people speak of memories they say the good usually outweighs the bad, unfortunately that isn't true in my case and honestly it makes me pretty mad

On Speaking The Truth

I have heard many times,
Of my elders speaking this,
Speak truth even ye commit crimes,
And please God by doing this,
If the truth you always speak,
Your head will he high like a peak.

The most senior in saints of all,
And Abdul Qadir was his name,
Advised his mother telling not lies at all,
And obedient son did the same,
Before the robbers the truth he quoth,
Its result, to mend they took oath.


No doubt speaking the truth is hard,
Like the steam from the water,
But hearing the truth is too much hard,
Like from steam being water,
I be hardly recognized by thee,
My mostly friends are against me.

That he be happy like skylark,
On muddy ground does never land,
Reaching his nest before being dark,
So never he falls on the sand,
And can soar does where he desire,
No stain is there on his attire.

For a truth many lies be told,
Like the sun by clouds hidden,
And as smuggling the precious gold,
But, miraj ends at all of sudden,
When curtain removes from the sin,
The truth will certainly win.
