Like a wounded dove brought to its knees
Confined to the ground, I see the summit through the trees
Like a wounded dove torn at the wings
Trapped in this cage, I see the summit through the trees

They say this endeavour is a waste of my time
'This world will grind you down just as I'
The world will shake, my grip could slide
I'll find the highest peak, I'll soar the sky so high

Keep me singing, keep me high
Where I can see [bad word] beauty for a lifetime

I'll keep on, I'll keep on
Give it all I've got
I'll walk upon the ridges of this mountain top
Eyes to the skies, hands stretched high
Where I can see beauty for a lifetime

Like a wounded dove brought to its knees
Confined to the ground, I see the summit through the trees
Like a wounded dove torn at the wings
Trapped in a cage, I see the summit through the trees

My body lies broken, the journey lies subdued 
Keep me singing, dress my wounds
We see the summit, we are the wounded doves
You can't keep us from the clouds above

I'll keep on, give it all I've got
I'm walking on the ridges of this mountain top
Eyes to the skies, hands stretched high
Give me your hands, we are alive

Keep me singing
Keep me high
We are young
And we're alive
