Written by Chris Cornell

You hide your eyes
But the ugly truth
Just loves to give it away
You gave yourself
If you were mine to give
I might throw it away
You share but money can¡¯t give
What the truth takes away
Throw it away


I painted my eyes
Ugly isn¡¯t what I want to see
I painted my mind
Ugly isn¡¯t what I want to be
I don¡¯t mind but the truth
Don¡¯t look that good on me
Throw it away


I don¡¯t think I really
Understand you
And I can¡¯t see why
I¡¯d ever want to
And even if it isn¡¯t mine to say
I¡¯ll say it anyway
It¡¯s ugly


If you were mine to give
I might throw it away
But money can¡¯t give
What the truth takes away
Throw it away
