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
I have stumbled, I fell, and you've been there to help
But these hills I built myself to climb
Yeah the hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh
I carry all the world when I stand on two feet
Looking for a sign in a part of me
Not always good, yeah I know that I 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
I have stumbled, I fell, and you've been there to help
But these hills I built myself to climb
Yeah the hills I built myself to climb
Oh, I've stumbled, I fell, and you've been there to help
But these hills I built myself to climb
Yeah the hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh
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
I have stumbled, I fell, and you've been there to help
But these hills I built myself to climb
Yeah the hills I built myself to climb
Oh, I've stumbled, I fell, and you've been there to help
But these hills I built myself to climb
Yeah the hills I built myself to climb, oh ahh
