Lyrics - Standing on Higher Ground by Alan Parsons 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
