The Higher You Climb Lyrics - Singles - Archer Tasmin

the higher you climb 

the further you fall 

and the harder you try 

the louder they cry 

i don't know why 

but it's written in my hand 

and i can see what is right 

if i stay on track 

i read the news today 

a land was blown away 

i understand it's out of my hands 

but i would lay my life down for you 

if you'd guarantee 

that you and all your kind would not abuse it 

i'm scared to watch tv 

because of what it does to me 

it leaves me feeling helpless 

but i would sacrifice the things i hold so dear in life 

if you would tell me it would not be useless 

and when i sleep at night 

another nation rise 

to carry on the fight for freedom 

they dedicate their lives 

a supreme sacrifice 

for simple human rights and freedom
