To Be Honest Without The Honesty


To be honest without the honesty; I promise that I’ll keep it clean ,drop some knowledge on how I feel .To be mean or to be real
 
The truth about the love I feel, It's like drowning , to be real it’s like a fetish, dying but I like it.
Keep gasping for air.
The reality I choose not to feel
My reflection in the mirror ,ten percent of an illusion ;my brain playing games ,It all just feels the same
 
To be honest without the honesty; I promise that I’ll keep it clean, to be real and feel some loyalty; Just don’t snap me to reality
 
I don’t wanna hurt your feelings.
Just want to shine some light on a situation. A situation in the dark leaving us without a heart. I see it hurting you inside to see this side of me. You ask me what is wrong and i say nothing quietly. I got you feeling left out of my mind and at the same time I’m out of my mind.
 
Can’t tell you how I feel in person, because it's a mix of it all. I will do my best to get the words out, but i know I’ll stumble and fall. 
When I fall , you won’t be ready to catch me , because what I'm dropping is too heavy.
