To Be Honest

I'm scared to wander outside major keys
 So I sing a song that I wrote just to please
 The fools and the fakes, afraid just like me
 To be honest
 I play my part with a smile painted on
 At best I'm a clown, at worst I'm a con
 Convincing the crowd and myself nothing's wrong
 To be honest
 My soul is trembling
 Knowing they're listening
 But all that I need to be
 Is all that you're making me
 Chorus
 I'm leaving the stage
 You can turn my lights down
 The curtain is closed
 I'm taking my bow
 Lord, help me remember
 Cause I forget how
 To be honest
 I rewrote my story without tragedies
 Left out the lines that reveal I am weak
 Erased every reason for you to save me
 To be honest
 My soul is trembling
 Knowing they're listening
 But all that I need to be
 Is all that you're making me
