Chris Cornell - Lies Lyrics

Now I can see clear
I can touch visions of my past
Lost in a dark maze
Lies they grow so fast

Leave my lies forever
When reality's so near
Leave my lies forever
While illusions disappear

Look at those pictures
See no one I'm supposed to be
Sharp as a light blade
Know it wasn't me

Change my life forever
And I'm jumping on a train
Change my life forever
Rails glitter in the rain

I open my eyes

Dare cross the border
Landing safely on different sides
Change, change my dusty wishes
For a new desire

See all around me walk
Empty shadows don't feel, don't talk
Lies in the mirror play
And I'm blown away

Leave my lies forever
Thick makeup on my face
Leave my lies forever
But no, this is not my place

I open my eyes

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Hey!) Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh oh oh

Dreams in the desert glow
Burning chance of some water source
I'm running so far
I'm running seawards
Diving into gold

Change my life forever
See the beauty of mistakes
Change my life forever
When reality awakes

I open my eyes
