Lyrics

Standing On Higher Ground

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I know the truth

But I can't say

And I have to turn my head

And look the other way

I'm not afraid

And I won't lie

As long as I see no wrong

I won't need to testify

I see the world

And I'm looking from a high place

Way above it all

Standing on higher ground

I breathe the air

While they're running in a rat race

Way above it all

Standing on higher ground

I feel the blow

But I don't speak

And I have to close my eyes

Pretending I'm asleep

Well I see the tears

But I don't cry

As long as I do no wrong

I don't need an alibi

I see the world

And I'm looking from a high place

Way above it all

Standing on higher ground

I breathe the air

While they're running in a rat race

Way above it all

Standing on higher ground
