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
