honestly
Gabbie Hanna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

White lies, but they're getting dark
Blurred lines, but they're getting clearer
Just tell the truth, ay, it's not that hard
You call me crazy
So am I crazy?
Your words don't hold any weight
I can't seem to get a straight answer
Don't trust you, but who's to blame?
I think you're crazy
But am I crazy?

Got me second guessin' everything you say
Thinkin' that I know you, but you're really a stranger
Doin' what you gotta do to get your way
You're reckless and selfish and you can't help it

Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry that I don't believe it, nah

Say too much, but it's not enough
Got me wonderin', 'what a lie you hiding?'
Did you lie when you called it love?
Or am I crazy?
Somebody save me

Got me second guessin' everything you say
Thinkin' that I know you, but you're really a stranger
Doin' what you gotta do to get your way
You're reckless and selfish and you can't help it

Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry that I don't believe it, nah

Don't know what's reality
Made me question my sanity, oh
Don't know what's reality
Am I losing my sanity?

Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, oh
All the bullshit, I don't need it
And honestly, I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But I don't want your dumb apology, no
Say you're sorry, you don't mean it
Sorry that I don't believe it, nah
Say you're talkin' to me honestly (I don't need it)
But you're lyin' to me constantly (I don't believe it, no)
Say you're talkin' to me honestly (I don't need it)
But you're lyin' to me constantly (I don't believe it, no)
(Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly




Say you're talkin' to me honestly
But you're lyin' to me constantly, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Gabbie Hanna's song "Honestly" speak about the doubts that a person may have in a relationship due to the lies told by their partner. The intro verse implies that the lies that were previously white and insignificant have now become dark and significant, and the lines that were previously blurred have become clear, making the person doubtful about their relationship. The chorus emphasizes the need for the partner to talk honestly, but the singer expresses her disbelief in what is being conveyed to her. The singer questions herself, asking if she is crazy for having doubts or if the partner is insane for lying.


The second verse underscores the doubts faced by the person in their relationship. The person is questioning whether the partner is hiding something or if they lied when they said they loved her, leading to further doubts about the relationship. The song's bridge has the singer expressing her doubts about what is real and wondering if she is going insane due to the constant lies. The chorus is repeated again, and the song ends with some overlapping lines from the chorus as the singer emphasizes her disbelief in what the partner is saying.
