"Higher Truth" lyrics - CHRIS CORNELL

CHRIS CORNELL
"Higher Truth"

You can make somebody cry
Go on, do what you like
I will be there by your side
I know what the future holds

You can set the world on fire
Yeah, if you want, it isn't hard
I will be there looking on
To see the trail of light as you fall

Oh, but I'll take the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth

You can fill the world with pain
Yeah, if you want, I feel it now
You can fill the world with hate
I've seen it done before
And I know how it all works out

Make a promise if you can
You know you'll only break it
Make a promise if you dare
Go on right ahead
Let see where that gets you

Oh, but I'll take the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth

Maybe you and I
One day will finally choose
A higher truth

Come, let's sit in the sun
Feel the world spin around
As the birds fly overhead
Can't you hear the waves?
Can't you feel the rain
As it falls upon your face?

I'll take the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth

I'll take the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
A higher truth
A higher truth

Maybe you and I
One day will finally choose
A higher truth, yeah

(La la la la la)
(La la la la la)
(La la la la)

(La la la la la)
(La la la la la)
(La la la la)

Come, let's sit in the sun
Feel the world spin around
As the birds fly overhead
Can't you hear the waves?
Can't you feel the rain
As it falls upon your face?
