Cheap Honesty

I know too well, I know these lines, I've seen them smothered,

In sleek ridicule. A seedy smile, they think they've scored,

But I know morning comes & babes alone again, too alone again

So what can I do, with cheap honesty,

You're giving me more than I can see,

But I'm to cool to say, that I want it all my way,

Get blasted by this sincerity.

I wish I had, the streets full view,

These people screaming, through their settled loves.

So I pretend, so mellowed out, too teasing,

Weak enough to long for, home again, lovely home again
