"Try Honesty" is the first single released from the Canadian music group Billy Talent's debut self-titled album, released in late 2003.

[edit] Music video

The music video for "Try Honesty," which was directed by Sean Michael Turrell, features the band playing in an abandoned psychiatric hospital in Whitby, Ontario. The video hints that the hospital is haunted in several ways, such as shadows without bodies, inanimate objects moving (ie: a toy doll opens its eyes without being touched, moving furniture) and people in a family picture moving.
