Honesty is not the best policy
Cause it might show the real me
"Be careful what you say"
"You might chase people away"
If I am just being me
That includes my intensity
I don't want to sound
Like I'm boasting aloud
But I would rather be alone
Than trying never to moan
Or mainly refusing to express
What lies within my chest
I will wear my heart on my sleeve
I will not try to always please
The passing opinions
Of passing people
Or the fading feelings
Of all my fake friends
So I will hold on
Even when all things are gone
To a friend closer than a brother
A loyalty like no other
