[Intro] Two teacups cooling; the truth is still warm. [Verse 1] You learned to set the table beautifully Even when the effort split unevenly Perfume in city dusk, silk gloves by receipts Peace can look polished from across the room But your shoulders know the price Of calling it balance when your side keeps bending [Pre-Chorus] You almost soften the edge again Then your own name steps forward [Chorus] Pretty honest That's the kind of beauty that can stay Pretty honest White rose with the thorns still on Grace gets stronger when it stops apologizing [Verse 2] Now it goes deeper than charm Shared nights, shared weight, shared bills Trust wants language, not perfume Desire wants terms you can live inside You can love with both hands open And still close the door on what takes too much [Breakdown] No more half-yes. No more beautiful maybe. [Chorus] Pretty honest That's the kind of beauty that can stay Mutual is the only thing that glows this long Pretty honest A clear no can sound like music [Bridge] Then the sky opens like a passport sleeve Study, voice, a larger window Truth does not ruin your softness It teaches it where to stand [Final Chorus] Pretty honest Now the whole horizon wears it well You keep the shimmer and the spine Two cups, one answer, a steadier heart [Tag] Beautiful because it's true.
