lyrics

I'm looking up and over every single obstacle that's brought me down into the valleys of these hills that keep swallowing all of my pride. My hands were meant to move mountains aside.

I know I've made a lot of mistakes. Just trust me for once in your life.

I've been swinging on ropes, hanging from brittle branches. I just can't change this part of me. My roots are dead, so I'll just keep swinging, 'cause once I leave this rope, I know that I'll be free. I know I'll be free.

I never thought I'd have these wolves at my heels as I run, but I run and I run. Can my lungs hold enough to keep me on my feet? I told myself that I'd never repeat these lines in my head again and again. I ascend this wall. I climb and I climb with no time as they snap their teeth beneath my feet. I try and I try, 'cause I know that this time these eyes will see the other side.

I know I've made a lot of mistakes. Just trust me for once in your life. I've been swinging on ropes, hanging from brittle branches. I just can't change this part of me. My roots are dead, so I'll just keep swinging, 'cause once I leave this rope, I know that I'll be free. I know I'll be free.

The full moon, cool breeze in the wind, clear skies for miles; I'll find myself within. It's time to go the distance between here and the stars. Passion is the only compass that I need. I know it'll take me far.
