Honestly Lyrics
[Verse 1]
White lies, but they're getting dark
Blurred lines, but they're getting clearer
Just tell the truth, hey, it's not that hard
You call me crazy, so am I crazy?
Your words don't hold any weight
I can't seem to get a straight answer
Don't trust you, but who's to blame?
I think you're crazy, but am I crazy?
[Pre-Chorus]
Got me second guessing everything you say
Thinking that I know you, but you're really a stranger
Doing what you gotta do to get your way
You're reckless and selfish and you can't help it
[Chorus]
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lying to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry but I don't believe it, nah
[Verse 2]
Say too much, but it's not enough
Got me wondering, what all are you hiding?
Did you lie when you called it love?
Or am I crazy?
Somebody save me
[Pre-Chorus]
Got me second guessing everything you say
Thinking that I know you, but you're really a stranger
Doing what you gotta do to get your way
You're reckless and selfish and you can't help it
[Chorus]
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lying to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry but I don't believe it, nah
[Bridge]
Don't know what's reality
Make me question my sanity, oh
Don't know what's reality
Am I losing my sanity?
[Chorus]
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry that I don't believe it, nah
[Outro]
Say you're talkin' to me honestly (Nah-nah-nah, I don't need it)
But you're lyin' to me constantly (Nah-nah-nah, I don't believe it, no)
Say you're talkin' to me honestly (Nah-nah-nah, I don't need it)
But you're lyin' to me constantly (Nah-nah-nah, I don't believe it, no)
(Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

What inspired this song?
The inspiration for “Honestly” came from a recent breakup that I went through with a pathological liar.

What was the writing process like?
I wrote “Honestly” first as a really cheesy kind of Disney pop song, and then I wrote a really dark poem, and then I met with some amazing producers and we mashed the two together and made it into what it is today. You just got to make everything into art. That’s my motto of life; turn your pain, tu...
What do you want fans to take away from the song?
I hope that most listeners can relate to it. I’m really careful when I write my music to not say specific things like, ‘Oh this is about a breakup, this is about a boy.’ I don’t want to say he or she or whatever it is. So if you’re ever in a situation where you’re being manipulated, you’re being lie...
