Standing On Higher Ground Lyrics - 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
