The struggle and the hussle we face each day! Run up that road, run up that hill, no problems! Make a deal with god to switch places...

It's about caring for someone so much you would do anything for them including shoulder all their pain and burdens. It's a beautiful song that really speaks about true friendship as well as stereotypical 'love'

I feel it is a doomed love, one where it is one-sided= more of a koi- a japanese term for a desperate and selfish type of love. One party is trying to change the other to their liking with the sheer strength of their will, instead of accepting them as they are. There is a communication break-down and neither one can relate to the other but there is a desire to keep going on as is only for the domineering one to be dominated. The stress of it all is making one lash-out upon the other verbally, tearing one down to make them see the light so to speak.

It's about death. Heaven is often referred to as being on top of a hill. This person died, and the person singing is wishing it was them instead. --sonnet 18

The song is about wanting to take away the pain of another... To sholder the burden of one you love and with your strength make them succeed in things that trouble them.

But ultimatly since you can not take the pain away you simply share it, and hope that it is your good intentions that eases their pain.

To me this song is about a soldier in like wwii and he's like telling his loved ones what hes going through

I think of someone who sees the one they love in pain, and they willl do anything they can to relieve that burden, even going so far as to take the burden upon themselves instead.

Beautiful song, at first, i interpreted it as the singer had a loved one who was trying to commit suicide maybe that was just a bit too much of a morbid take on the song!
