climb the hill

to me you're inside out and upside down

to me you're inside out and upside down

i opened a door in me

like a cat with curiosity

unwrapped the perfect present and saw a new history

panic politics don't get me down

bible thump posturing won't turn me 'round

it seems the rules were made for some other time

too much money in the pipeline

too much fighting overseas

too much hatred in the heartland

too much talking over me

look around and listen

i don't exist without you in my life

i'm having a good time by the way

sitting here wondering

how can i say?

those pretty pictures don't paint the truth

very clever edits conceal a lie

if you want to hear the rules being made

you've got to have

your ear pressed to the ground

too many lost without a requiem

too many lost without a cause

too many win without a winner

too many want to go to war

i'll climb the hill and look you down

to me you're inside out and upside down

i'll climb the hill and look you down

to me you're inside out and upside down

too much money in the pipeline

too much fighting overseas

too much hatred in the heartland

too much talking over me

i'll climb the hill and look you down

down

down

i'll climb the hill

i'll climb the hill

down

down

down

too much money in the pipeline

too much fighting overseas

i'll climb the hill

too many lost without a requiem

too many lost without a cause

i'll climb the hill
