[Verse 1] If somebody asked you to surrender And that was the only way to win If somebody offered you the freedom to open your mind again Would you take that flight Would you walk right in [Chorus] So meet me down at the bottom line And open my heart with your hands And we'll hear the sound of pretenses falling And find where the truth has been Down at the bottom line [Verse 2] If somebody led you to the water If somebody taught you (right?) how to swim If somebody took your doubt and turned it out And then you could breathe again Would you take that chance Would you dive right in
[Chorus] So meet me down at the bottom line And open my heart with your hands And we'll hear the sound of pretenses falling And find where the truth has been Down at the bottom line [Bridge] What if the wind blows The cradle will fall What if the wise man knows nothing at all We justify We crucify But we don't have the balls to cry [Chorus] So meet me down at the bottom line And open my heart with your hands And we'll hear the sound of pretenses falling And find where the truth has been Down at the bottom line [Outro] Where truth always flows That's where we'll go
