Honest

(album: Rebels - 2019)

How can I write
To someone I've never seen
How can I love
Someone I've yet to meet
I wanna know
I gotta be honest, yeah
How can I trust
Someone who says they're good
When it doesn't turn out
The way that I think it should
I wanna know
I'm just being honest

And I hope you're not afraid of my questioning

'Cause I will fight, fight, fight
Through the dark, dark, dark
And I will pray, pray, pray
Till faith runs out, out, out
And I will push past the feeling
That you're just too good to be true
But I gotta be honest
Believing is hard to do

Somehow they know
When you've walked in the room
They laugh and they cry
How am I missing you
And why do I feel so alone

But I will run, run, run
Back to hope, hope, hope
And I will trust, trust, trust
When I don't know, know, know
And I will push past the feeling
That you're just too good to be true
But I gotta be honest
Believing is hard to do

And I hope you're not afraid of my questioning
Am I wasting my breath or are you listening
'Cause if seeing is believing how can I believe?

But I will fight, fight, fight
Through the dark, dark, dark
And I will pray, pray, pray
Till faith runs out, out, out
And I'll remember the first time
You called me by name
And I will run, run, run
Back to hope, hope, hope
And I will trust, trust, trust
When I don't know, know, know
And I'll remember the first time
My heart felt your love
And I will walk, walk, walk
Not by sight, sight, sight
'Cause I will see you one day
Even if it's on the other side
I will push past the feeling
That you're just too good to be true
But I gotta be honest
Believing is hard to do
