| “ | ‘Honey’ started in Melbourne with [producer] Styalz Fuego and the Serenity Prayer. My dad taught it to me when I was a kid. One of the lines is something like ‘Give me the courage to accept things I cannot change.’ I love the idea of having these really strong feelings for someone and not knowing how to express them, and almost saying a prayer—even though I'm very irreligious. ‘Give me the courage to say all these things I feel about you.’ It just felt very joyous, like the confetti moment at the show. | ” |

Lyrics
Give me the courage to say all the shit I mean, yeah
Give me a song to rock your body, a lucid dream, yeah
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you what you really mean, yeah
Give me that honey, honey, love, you've got the recipe
You know
I see love in every space
I see sex in every city, every town
I wonder what us two could make
'Cause I feel so good around you
Can you imagine what we'd get up to? Yeah
There's something different about tonight
I could speak, or just let my body explain
I'm getting close to satisfied
And I've learned so much about you
Don't know your name, that's something we'll get to, yeah
Overdrive
My body's workin' in overdrive
Don't care how late, let's go overtime
Mantra, eternally in my mind
In my mind
Give me the courage to say all the shit I mean, yeah
Give me a song to rock your body, a lucid dream, yeah
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you what you really mean, yeah
Give me that honey, honey, love, you've got the recipe
Give me the courage to say all the shit I mean, yeah
Give me a song to rock your body, a lucid dream, yeah
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you what you really mean, yeah
Give me that honey, honey, love, you've got the recipe
I don't pray a lot, God knows
But I'm callin' in favours like I believe
Don't go bringin' me that close
'Cause I feel so good around you
I'm going in tonight like I love you, yeah
Overdrive
My body's workin' in overdrive
Don't care how late, let's go overtime
Mantra, eternally in my mind
In my mind
Give me the courage to say all the shit I mean, yeah
Give me a song to rock your body, a lucid dream, yeah
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you what you really mean, yeah
Give me that honey, honey, love, you've got the recipe
