High up there in the hills
I hear my songs I cannot sing
Yet I'm chained to my head
I left my mind into my bed

Scared of failing in the end
My iron shields begin to bend
Headstart, it gave me nothing
I was the first to get nowhere

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills behind the hills

Like a bullet from a gun
I'm drawn further from the son
What used to be my shining star
Is now replaced and has come and gone

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills behind the hills

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills

If I could only reach
If I could only see
The hills behind the hills
