Lyrics

Sure is hard to be so honest

Sure is hard to be completely honest

Took you awhile to find it out

It took some time for others to realize this honesty

We're not out to please just anybody

We are not aiming to please everyone indiscriminately

Do I have to shout it out

Is it necessary for me to loudly express it?

We don't want, be just like you, we don't even want to try

We don't aspire to be like you, and we're not even willing to attempt


So how's feel to be so proud

How does it feel to be so proud?

Never had the chance to be just yet

I haven't had the opportunity to experience that yet

Head in the clouds oh so high

Having a lofty and self-assured attitude

Hope you get run over by a jet

An expression of disdain or disregard for someone's arrogance

We don't want to think just like you, we don't even want to

We don't want to adopt your way of thinking, and we're not even interested in trying


Sure is hard to be so honest

Reiteration of the difficulty in being truly honest

They all try to put you down

Others attempt to undermine or belittle you

When it gets to hard just fake a smile and take a bow

When faced with difficulties, pretend to be okay and gracefully acknowledge applause

Sure looks better than a frown

Pretending to be fine seems more appealing than expressing sadness

We don't want to feel like you do we don't even want to try

We don't want to experience emotions as you do, and we're not even willing to try


Hustle and bustle where feet are a shuffle in a place where

Describing a chaotic and noisy environment where people move hurriedly

There's always room for play and I try to be and I try to see what's

Always seeking room for leisure and trying to perceive what lies ahead

In front of me and I feel the animosity but to myself I'll lie

Feeling hostility from others but choosing to deceive oneself

Where the eagles fly into the sky

Referencing freedom and elevated experiences

I'll just take a seat and have a piece of humble pie

Choosing to be humble and accept a difficult truth

A piece of humble pie

Reiteration of accepting humility

A piece of humble pie
