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
