The Hill

(album: MYTH - 2020)

See, I've taken cities
Burn them to the ground
Turn buildings to dust
Without making a sound
And I've talked to angels
They've told me my fate
But I never listened
I just walked away

Now I'm standing here
In the house on the hill
The door was left open
In the air is a chill
And I thought I could take it
Cos I need no one
But now it feels wasted
Being here on my own

Cos before I met you
I had nothing to prove
And now it's so clear
That I've so much to lose
So as I wait here in our house on the hill
I think I should tell you how I really feel

See, I find it hard
To live from my heart
There's so many walls
I'm always on guard
And I look for danger
Round every corner
But that was before
Then I saw you

I thought I could take it
Thought that I'd be fine
There's no need to chase it
She'll come round in her time
But now it is clear
I have made a mistake
And I do not want you
To just walk away

Cos before I met you
I had nothing to prove
And now it is so clear
That I've so much to lose
So as I wait here in our house on the hill
And I find the courage to tell you how I really feel
