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

If you want, it isn't hard

I will be there looking on

To see the trail of light

As you fall

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 get you

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

And 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.
