"Honesty" was written by Edward Lay, Russell Leetch, Justin Lockey, Tom Smith and Elliott Williams. The song is a "string-driven midtempo ballad," and "a soaring, vulnerable number complete with Tom Smith's signature baritone vocals- and a touch of falsetto. The atmospheric track continues to build in momentum as it proceeds, telling the familiar tale of a broken heart atop an anthemic chorus, dramatic drums and spectacular strings."
Music video
A music video for the song, directed by Favourite Colour: Black, was released on 21 October 2013. It was filmed on 20 September 2013 around Soho and Shaftesbury Avenue in London. It features "a hen party, a young streetwise girl and a scary-looking vagrant." "It's all shot from my point of view, and I kind of encounter all these 'undesirables' along the way," said Editors' frontman Tom Smith in an interview with XFM.
