A Honest Man

I am a honest man

I'm not going to lie to you even when I can

If it hurts it hurts

If it's funny Damn right its funny

If it's a sad day then maybe you should go away

cause I'm not going to lie to you I am a honest man.

I could be so different you know, it would be a little rest .

A simply word not spoken or a jester thats just a token .

But thats not me nor how I want to be you see for I am a honest man.

My shield is a banner named truth

my sword is my wit and the words I have wrote

My Name is your love and words we have spoke

When they lay to the ground

with friends gathered all round

I will be proud to hear

these simply words so dear

Here Lays a honest man.
