Lyrics

Goddamn
Goddamn, it's been a couple days
Since the honeymoon phase
You say
You say you wanna play the long game
You should know that things will change
[PreChorus]
I got some baggage
It's taking me time to heal
And I'm scared that it scares you away
When I get too real
Sometimes I'm too open
Heavy with emotions
Love over all reason
But at least I'm being honest
Sometimes I'm too open
Wrapped up in the moment
But even at my lowest
I'm always being honest
Used to saying yes, used to go with the flow
Even when I wanted to say no
Used to taking shit, used to faking it
'Cause I hated sleeping in my bed alone
Should've cussed him out, listen to my girl
She said he got a way to make it all your fault
Should've stood my ground, should've walked right out
Oh, I should've known that it's not love if he treats me wrong
I got some baggage
It's taking me time to heal
And I'm scared that it scares you away
When I get too real
[Chorus]
Sometimes I'm too open
Heavy with emotions
Love over all reason
But at least I'm being honest (Ohhh)
Sometimes I'm too open
Wrapped up in the moment
But even in my lowest
I'm always being honest
[Outro]
Ooh
I'm being honest with you
I'd rather be real and rejected
Then fake for acceptance
Ooh
I'm being honest with you
I'd rather be real and rejected
Then fake for acceptance, yeah
