The Other Side of Honesty (Live)

This song came about, uh I was in a relationship quite a while ago And, uh, wanted to be honest about everything Figured that would make it stronger No. It didn't work out Sometimes, you just have to not say certain things You know, they say but that's lying by omission. Well You gotta try to keep the peace This is called The Other Side of Honesty. It's a bluesy tune Had to tell you everything Guilt got the best of me Had to tell you everything, baby Only way we could live free But you knocked me down So much for honesty It's not a perfect world Everybody's got a secret or two No such thing as a perfect man Here I'm that living proof You had to know it all about me Well, so much for honesty Well, honesty, it ain't all that it's cracked up to be Honesty, baby, took one big bite right out of me But, this wound is on the mend And, baby, I ain't going back there again It's not about tomorrow It's less about yesterday You beg, you steal, you borrow To be anywhere but where you are And, it does little for what you need When you're on the other side of honesty Instrumental (Aw great) Thank you
