The Bottom Line

[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 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, whoa
The 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

[Outro]
Down at the bottom line
That's where we'll go
The line
Where truth always flows
The line
That's where we'll go
