The Hills

[Verse 1]

I thought I knew the person I wanted to be

I thought I knew my heart then it fell to my feet

The missing thing, something I couldn't place, then you came

I won't pretend I know where to start

You'll be my guide while I'm healing the scars

Sometimes you fall just before you can fly, but I must fight

[Chorus]

I have stumbled, I fell

And you've been there to help

But these hills I built myself to climb

There are hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh

[Verse 2]

I carry all the world when I stand on two feet

Looking for a sign in a part of me

Not always good and I know that I've sinned, but I must try

I won't pretend I know where to start

You'll be my guide while I'm healing the scars

Sometimes you fall just before you can fly, but I must fight

[Chorus]

I have stumbled, I fell

And you've been there to help

But these hills I built myself to climb

They are hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh

I have stumbled, I fell

And you've been there to help

But these hills I built myself to climb

There are hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh

[Bridge]

Why am I so jaded, why am I so hard?

My innocence is fading, it's something we discard

You took away my pain, you made it not so hard

I feel your presence fading, but the journey must go on

[Chorus]

I have stumbled, I fell

And you've been there to help

But these hills I built myself to climb

They are hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh

I have stumbled, I fell

And you've been there to help

But these hills I built myself to climb

There are hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh

(These hills, yeah, I built them, these hills)
