"The Hill" lyrics

I didn't leave you in an instant
It happened over years
Started slipping through your fingers
The more life interfered
Moved northern up the country
The tin can phone got tight
Made friends who didn't know you
I defended you, I tried
I tried

Cause you chose me so I got to choose you
Held me in the war room
Kept me from myself
Attentive in your consequences
Free roaming with fences
Oh I've never known a love
Never known a love like that

I ate the food you made me
Wore the dress laid on the bed
I followed all your rules
So there'd be jewels around my head
I didn't know my voice
But I knew I had belief
So when I left you
I left more than you
I left all of me

You chose me so I got to choose you
Held me in the war room
Kept me from myself
Attentive in your consequences
Free roaming with fences
Oh I've never known a love
Never known a love like that

I've been lost ever since
Can't go back to the
House up there on the hill
Still I'm asking
I've been lost ever since
Can't go back to the
House up there on the hill
Still I'm asking
I've been lost ever since
Can't go back to the
House up there on the hill
Still I'm asking
