lyrics

it's an uphill climb for our heroine
the sun is setting, the air is growing thin
and I can hear the cheers from all my friends
from the safety of base camp

but I don't know how everyone else carries on
well I don't know what they have figured out
and maybe it's not that hot, and we're not about to die
and we could save ourselves if we'd gather up the try

and avoidance of regret is what i'm working on
a life lived without it, or to just move on
to let it go and really, really mean it
to open up my hands and free them for receiving

but I don't know how everyone else carries on
well I don't know what they have figured out
well maybe it's not that hot, and we're not about to die
and we could save ourselves if we'd gather up the try

and the wound I carry tonight is heavy and it won't stop bleeding
no matter how tightly I wrap it up
it's always open, a constant needing

but I don't know how everyone else carries on
well I don't know what they have figured out
and baby it's getting hot, but I'm not afraid to die
and we could save ourselves if we'd gather up the try
oh we could save ourselves if we'd gather up the try
