No Honesty

You threw my head down,
and now that's how I walk
never looking up, scared of eyes that follow
my every move.
things were said that hurt
broke me down to the bone
took my pride and strength.

To be honest is suddenly wrong
and doubted upon.
Is there such a thing to be too honest??
Sorry to be truthful when no one else will.
You all can tell me things that will hurt me "just being a friend",
but instinct says your just all trying to get involved.

Well screw it all.
I will just pick my own head up.
I will go on being hoenst and truthful,
you all can continue to lie,
talk about everyone behind their backs,
but I won't be there when someone turns their backs on
all of you.
