Take The High Road

Taking the high road is an uphill battle.

Take the high road
Not the why road
Not the do-or-die road
You’re better than this

But then how these thoughts start to erode…
Now we’re sliding down the cliff
Do we ever get enough of this?
Not enough is too much
And the load's unbalanced while we slip
I’m not your doormat daughter
not your lamb for slaughter
Everybody has to make sacrifices sometimes, well,
The path to heaven is paved all the way to hell
And If you want something nice
Get ready for the uphill battle
it’s an uphill battle (battle)
Uphill battle

Do you hear these bones?
How they rattle (are you rattling me?)
Rattle, rattle where’s the baby?
Baby snakes!

Watch your back before
They bite you back down
They’ll fire you up just to watch you drown

It’s an uphill battle (battle)
its an uphill battle
And you’re upside down

Start digging your ditch now
and just lay down
when the earth stops shaking
maybe you’ll be found...
Everybody wants to just do what’s best
but don't you ever forget:
They’re all so much better than you
so get used to it.

You’re the least of their worries
until you’re not around,
They’ll always treat you like shit
until you start to pound…
Take the high road
and get up off the ground
Better start packing
and don’t make a sound
If they’re gonna get mad
They’re gonna do that now
Get away quick before you’re found...

They’ll lock you up - committed!

I’m not your doormat daughter
Spare me the sword and show some honor
I’m not your lamb for slaughter
Everybody has to make sacrifices sometimes, well,
The path to heaven is paved all the way to hell
And If you want something nice
Get ready for the uphill battle
It’s an uphill battle (battle)
Uphill battle
