Halfway Honest Songtext
von Jun OKUNO

I don′t ask for the truth
Just something that feels close
You lean on the doorway
Like you're already gone

The lights in the kitchen
Buzz louder than you
Every word feels borrowed
Every pause feels used

You talk like you′re careful
I hear what you hide
I count all the seconds
You won't look me in the eye


Say it halfway honest
Say it slow
I don't need the whole thing
Just let it show
You don′t have to promise
You don′t have to stay
Just don't dress it up
And walk away

Your hands keep moving
Like they know the end
You say"it′s nothing"
Like that means"again"

I'm standing in circles
You′re already free
You keep dealing silence
Like it costs nothing to me

You laugh when it's heavy
You shrug when it lands
I′m reading the spaces
Between what you can't say


Say it halfway honest
Say it clean
I don't want a story
I want what you mean
You don′t have to want me
You don′t have to try
Just don't call it love
When it′s already goodbye

I won't chase the answer
I won′t make it loud
I've learned how to listen
When no one′s around

Say it halfway honest
Then let it fall
I'll keep what's left
I don′t need it all
You don′t have to save me
You don't have to explain
Just don′t play the dealer
With my name
