Higher Ground - Sasha

Yesterday’s hero

Shines into the light of today

Sees only the shadow

Of how we used to be and how we’ve strayed

Tomorrow’s treason

Lives inside the heart of every man

The future they promised

Has turned into something that we don’t understand

To wake up in the morning full of hope is all he needs

But still his heart bleeds

To rise into a day that’s so dark sends him down, down, down

His head is moving underground

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

He’s lost what he first had found

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door

It’s never like it was before

He’s looking for the higher ground

(Higher ground)

(Looking for the higher ground)

Lessons of history

Shows that all those dreams would end too soon

Sees only the lonely

Weeping at the back of a crowded room

To float up in a sky full of wishes, she’ll give to all

But still her heart falls

To rise up in a day that’s so far sends her down, down, down

Her head is moving underground

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

He’s lost what he first had found

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door

It’s never like it was before

He’s looking for the higher ground

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

He’s lost what he first had found

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door (what he first had found)

It’s never like it was before

But now he’s looking underground

(But now he’s looking underground)

(Looking underground)

from the ground

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

(It's no higher ground I tell you baby no)

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door (higher ground)

It’s never like it was before

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

(I'm looking for the higher ground)

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door (I said I lost what I found)

It’s never like it was before

It’s never meant to be like this

You find yourself at the precipice

You’re looking at the final kiss

Staring at the thing you miss

It never rains but always pours

You never find an open door (I'm looking for higher ground)

It’s never like it was before

I’m looking for the higher ground

Lost but now I’m found

Looking for the higher ground

Lost but now I am found (higher ground)

I’m looking for the higher ground

I’m looking for the higher ground

Lost but now I’m found

Looking for the higher ground
