WORTH WALKING
Bloodhymn[Verse 1]
Life always looked complicated,
Beautiful enough to make me stay,
Terrifying enough to make me wonder
Why we climb it anyway.
Some are born halfway to the top,
Some start underneath the ground.
Some barely feel the weight beneath them,
Some spend years just crawling out.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it was never meant
To feel the same for everyone.
[Chorus]
It’s a long way up,
And I can’t see where it ends.
Every step gets heavier,
Every turn gets steep again.
But somewhere on the way
I found a few who changed the view.
They never made the climb less cruel—
They just made it worth walking through.
[Verse 2]
Some people come like open windows
In a room you thought was sealed.
They don’t fix what’s underneath you,
They just make it easier to feel.
A little color in the distance,
A little warmth against the cold.
Not enough to move the mountain—
Just enough to make you go.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe beauty isn’t waiting
At the top for us to find.
Maybe some of it is walking
Right beside us all the time.
[Chorus]
It’s a long way up,
And I can’t see where it ends.
Every step gets heavier,
Every turn gets steep again.
But somewhere on the way
I found a few who changed the view.
They never made the climb less cruel—
They just made it worth walking through.
[Bridge]
I used to think the point
Was reaching somewhere higher.
Now I’m not so sure.
Maybe it’s the hands beside you.
Maybe it’s the names you carry.
Maybe it’s who makes you stop
And look around—
before you keep going.
[Final Chorus]
It’s a long way up,
And maybe that won’t ever change.
Some will walk through open sunlight,
Some will fight through wind and rain.
But somewhere on the way
There are people who change the view.
They may never make the climb less cruel—
But they make it beautiful too.
[Outro]
Complicated.
Frightening.
Beautiful.
Maybe that’s life.
Maybe that’s enough.
