standing on higher ground

Singer:alan parsons project, the

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
