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)
