Higher Ground Songtext
von enkElination

She promised me life, she gave me death
She wispered to me words I couldn′t understand
High upon the hill, sitting on your throne
The darkness waits around you, all alone

When all was right and done
Tears drying from the sun
The fairytale begun (higher ground)
I stand right here, won't run
I take the higher ground

Her skin, like warm silk, sets fire to the touch
Her eyes shone like stained glass full of lust
This shell is all but broken now
Forgotten like the last of fallen snow


When all was right and done
Tears drying from the sun
The fairytale begun (higher ground)
I stand right here, won′t run
I take the higher ground

She licked her lips like a siren's call
A flower in full bloom
Carried like the child of a whore
Forsaken in the womb
Held tight in your warm embrace
A lonely mock tear fell
She smiled, and with a kiss she broke the spell

When all was right and done
Tears drying from the sun
The fairytale begun (higher ground)
Now I won't be the one
I slowly come undone
Still feel the fight is won (higher ground)
I stand right here, won′t run
I take the higher ground
