Searching With My Good Eye Closed

We often close our eyes to an uncomfortable truth.  The pursuit of truth and goodness presupposes an open and honest search.  The alternative is like searching for stable ground up in the sky. 

Soundgarden - Searching With My Good Eye Closed


Painted blue across my eyes
And tie the linen on
And I'm on my way, on my way
Looking for the paradigm
So I can pass it off
Is it on my side?
Is it to the sky?
Looking to the sky and down
Searching for a ground
With my good eye closed

If I took you for a ride
Would you take it wrong
Or would you make it right
Looking for a pedestal
That I can put you on
And be on my way

Is it to the sky?
Looking to the sky and down
Searching for a ground
With my good eye closed

Stop you're trying to bruise my mind
I can do it on my own
Stop you're trying to kill my time
It's been my death since I was born
I don't remember half the time
If I'm hiding or I'm lost
But I'm on my way...

Is it to the sky?
I'm on my way...
Is it to the sky?
I'm on my way...
Is it to the sky?
