I'm Above

[Verse 1: Mark Lanegan and Layne Staley]

For clear space and soundness of mind

I've let you play me for some time

One can only receive and retain

But the lies you recite for your gain

[Verse 2: Mark Lanegan and Layne Staley]

So you rely on my faith in your kind

Or rather continue to pretend that I'm blind

You say I made your life a livin' hell

And yet still let me pay you when I fell

[Pre-Chorus: Layne Staley]

How is it you're feelin' so uneasy? How is it that I feel fine?

Life reveals what is dealt through seasons, circle comes around each time

I've been blessed with eyes to see this, behind the unwhole truth you hide

Bite to remind the bitten, bigger, mouth repayin' tenfold wide

[Chorus: Layne Staley]

I'm above

Over you, I'm standin' above

Claimin' unconditional love

Above

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3: Mark Lanegan and Layne Staley]

Try to keep bad blood in the past

Never thought a chance, a chance it would last

I have strength enough, enough to forgive

I desire peace where I live

[Pre-Chorus: Layne Staley]

I've been blessed with eyes to see this, behind the unwhole truth you hide

Bite to remind the bitten, bigger, mouth repayin' tenfold wide

How is it you're feelin' so uneasy? How is it that I feel fine?

Life reveals what is dealt through seasons, circle comes around each time

[Chorus: Layne Staley]

I'm above

Over you, I'm standin' above

Claimin' unconditional love

Above

I'm above

Over you, I'm standin' above

Claimin' unconditional love

Above

I'm above

Over you, I'm standin' above

Claimin' unconditional love

Above
