Take Me To Higher Ground Lyrics by Andy Prieboy

Virtue Triumphs

2016

I have found
When the shit hits the fan and I’m breaking
My aching head is making crazy sounds
It’s hard to stay straight in this twisted town
Where the others jump and die or drown
Can you take me to higher ground?
Because I found:
When they drink to my health to watch me drown
Toss in the towel as I’m going down
When my fifteen minutes have come and gone
And the credits roll and the critics yawn
You shine like gold in tinsel town
And you take me to higher ground
Hell only knows
I never intended to pave my road
With broken hearts and broken homes
In the name of love, in the name of hope
We raced neck and neck to the hangman’s rope
When they stabbed my back I cut their throat
Can you take me to higher ground
Because I tried
I tried hitting the bottle, pressing my luck
Setting the throttle to self-destruct
Where does it stop , how low is low
I thought when I hit bottom I’d find my soul Man
I'm just a goddamned bottomless hole
Can you take me to higher ground
When my fifteen minutes have come and gone
And the credits roll and the critics yawn
You shine like gold in tinsel town
And you take me to higher ground
