[Intro]
Pain, sweet pain, let's learn somethin' from it
I see the top, brother, and I might just summit
I've been pinin' and pinin' for so damn long
Thinkin' it's about time someone else is strong
Thinkin' it's about time someone else is strong

[Verse 1]
Humble yourself, holy roller, if you don't, you're gonna come down hard
Make amends with the boy you were, but not the man you are
We heard hymnals creepin' through all the trees that we grew up in
Lost so much faith through time, can't remember them

[Chorus]
You're so tired, but the top is nigh
Keep on goin', you'll soon arrive

[Verse 2]
How lookin' at the stars in the valley tend to lend a man hope
Have you wishin' all the highways from this point on lead home
There are mighty fine inclines and a snaky stretch of rope to scale
Just know wherever you go, I'll be wishin' you well

[Chorus]
You're so tired, but the top is nigh
Keep on goin', you’ll soon arrive
You're so tired, but the top is nigh
Keep on goin', you'll soon arrive
[Outro]
Pain, sweet pain, let's learn somethin' from it
I see the top, brother, and I might just summit
'Cause I've been pinin' and pinin' for so damn long
Thinkin' it's about time someone else is strong
