The High Road

I wont be a victim, a beggar, a fool
I try to live my life by the golden rule
If you dont love me
What am I supposed to do
Ill take the high road and walk on away from you
Ill find me an angel
To lift me up in time
Ill listen for the voice
Which speaks my bitter mind
Ill try to forgive myself
for not heeding all the signs
Oh, Ill take the high road
And walk away one last time
Ill wipe away the tears
Cause I know darn well Ive tried
Ill look inside myself
For the part that was mine
I aint gonna try to hurt ya back or lie and say I didnt care
Ill just take the high road
and walk away from here
My heart is battered , my soul is bruised
my face is wearing that same false smile, I used to use
I put my feelings under lock and key
Oh, and take the high road
And walk on away quietly
Ill pack up my pride and go somewhere far
You cant blame somebody
for who they really are
But what youve done to me, you know it just aint fair
I aint gonna * **** about it, cause I know sure well, it just aint there
Ill walk away with my head held high, forgive and forget
uh-uh daddy not this time
Ill keep looking for my angel
and I know Ill be just fine
Oh stayin on the high road
and walking away last time
