about

"Honest Living (Someday Best)" is a sequel to "Honest Tree" from the album Unfall (2020), which was written by Chase Tremaine and produced by Zach Lardy.

lyrics

The ax I wield yields to my decree
Chopping through each ring of helpless trees
Then gather up, burn the spurned debris
To make an honest living

Future-me is looking great
Dressed up in his someday best
All his limbs covered in leaves
And no sins to be confessed

If I'm honest
Living like I am now
I'll never get there
If I'm hiding
It's because I'm too ashamed
That all my limbs are bare

Pull the roots, undress for nest or shade
Cut the knees, no breeze within the glade
Using my own bone to hone the blade
But is it honest living?

Future-me is looking great
Dressed up in his someday best
All his limbs covered in leaves
And no sins to be confessed

If I'm honest
Living like I am now
I'll never get there
If I'm hiding
It's because I'm too ashamed
That all my limbs are bare

Scheming up my someday best
Is a lying dream, a dying request
Caring about what the future's wearing
Instead of the fruit that the present's bearing
Scheming up my someday best
Is a lying dream, a dying request
Caring about what the future's wearing
Instead of the fruit that the present's bearing

Future-me is looking great
Dressed up in his someday best
All his limbs covered in leaves
And no sins to be confessed

If I'm honest
Living like I am now
I'll never get there
If I'm hiding
It's because I'm too ashamed
That all my limbs are bare
