lyrics

I see tranquility where you see desolation.
There's a beauty here some never get the chance to see.
Conditions so extreme where only the strong survive.
Where friends became family,
It takes me back, this late night country drive.

At the top of the hill life is so easy.
You're tested when you're down in the valley.
It's where we learned our strength comes from scars.
And this is our shelter where we'll stay dry in the storm.

The comfort I feel from our winters with the sun,
Bringing everything that I have missed with me back home.
This security the city can't offer.
Our questions only home can answer.

At the top of the hill life is so easy.
You're tested when you're down in the valley.
No city lights to black out the stars.
And this is our shelter where we'll stay dry in the storm.

Because I know crawling back to my own home battered and broke,
It isn't easy, but I have my family and friends who I can trust to fall back on.
