Standing on Higher Ground

P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }

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.

(Instrumental Break)

Way above it all!
Way above it all!
Knowing the world,
Standing on higher ground.

Way above it all!
Way above it all!
Knowing the world,
Standing on higher ground

I see the world,

(See the world.)
And I'm looking from a high place.
(Looking from a high place.)
Way above it all
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground,
Way above it all.

I breathe the air,
(Breathe the air.)
While they're running in a rat race.
(Running in a rat race.)
Way above it all
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground,
Way above it all.

I see the world,
(See the world.)
Now I'm looking from a high place.
(Looking from a high place.)
Way above it all
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground,
Way above it all.

I breathe the air,
(Breathe the air.)
While they're running in a rat race.
(Running in a rat race)
I say way above it all
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground,
Way above it all.

I see the world,
(Way above it all.)
And I'm looking from a high place.
(Looking from a high place.)
Way above it all
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground,
Way above it all.

I breathe the air,
(Way above it all.)
While they're running in a rat race.
Way above it all.
(Way above it all.)
(Way, We)
Standing on higher ground.
