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

[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
