Текст песни Higher Ground

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
