The Hill

Well I've taken cities
Burned them to the ground
Turned buildings to dust
Without making a sound

And I've talked to angels
They told me my fate
But I never listened
I just walked away
Now I'm standing here
In our house on the Hill
The door was left open
In the air is a chill

And i thought i could take it
Coz I need no one
And now it feels wasted
Being here on my own

Before I met you
I had nothing to prove
And now it's so clear
That I have so much to lose
So as I wait here
In our house on the hill
Think i should tell you
How I really feel

I find it hard
To live from my heart
There's so many walls
I'm always on guard
See 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
Now it is clear
I have made a mistake
But i do not want you
To just walk away

Before I met you
I had nothing to prove
And now it's so clear
That I have 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 feel
