Standing On Higher Ground — The Alan Parsons Project

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
