Standing on Higher Ground — текст песни (The Alan Parson Project)

(Lead vocal - Geoff Barradale)

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
