Oh, so you want me to be honest now?

Well, Honey—that’s a little hard for me.

Not to say I chew lies between my teeth
Or spit them out like sunflower seeds.

Read between my lines baby--
You're a psychology major.

Words are unnecessary links in speech.
What's my body language telling you?

But I know what you really want from me.
A line of poetry, a verse of total honesty.

Like I said, that's a little hard for me
when someone's in my shower singing off key.

My bodies the most honest thing about me.
Standing here in flesh and bone baby.

Read my skin like a diary.
