so high you can't get over it
so wide you can't get around it
so deep, deeper than an ocean
so far, it's goin' on forever
that's how big is truth

so close it rests on your shoulder
so simple, world leaders can't understand it
it ain't laying in with the in-crowd
doesn't go where the in-crowd goes
that's how hip is truth
that's how big is truth

some take the long way around
some take the long way around
some take the long way around
I'll tell you what they found
truth

so loud, louder than a rocket
so quiet it fits in your pocket
after the bomb's fall
after the Berlin wall
there's one thing that'll still stand tall
that's how big is truth
that's how final is truth

some take the long way around
some take the long way around
some take the long way around
I'll tell you what they found
