Chris Cornell - When Bad Does Good lyrics

Standing beside an open grave You're fate decided, your life erased Your final hour has come today Lit by the fire of your temples burning You were a child and so was I Now you're a hunter but I am a lion And I will cut you down like I've done so many times But sometimes bad can do some good Sometimes bad can do some good Sometimes bad can do some good And I heard you say that flesh sells by the pound When blood is raining down it cuts a deep river And I'm diving Now shine a light down onto the earth And shake this gold dust out, out of the dirt No saints beside me and no prayers to guide me Sometimes bad can do some good Bad can do some good Sometimes bad can do some good (Rain down, heaven is falling) I've chosen a side and I will show no pity (Rain down, heaven is falling) And spare no lives For those who try me (Rain down, heaven is falling) Let it be understood Sometimes bad can do some good (Rain down, heaven is falling) Sometimes bad can do some good (Rain down, heaven is falling) Sometimes bad can do some good
