The tree on the hill

[GROVER]
You're not the first half-blood I was sent to protect. I should've told you, but I-I thought that if I did, you'd never want me on this quest. If you knew what a failure I was. Ask Annabeth

There's a tree on the Hill
Up on Half-Blood Hill

That watches over us
Silent and still

And no one at camp is safe until
We can see the tree on the Hill

[GROVER]
This was way before I met you. Chiron sent me to escort three half-bloods back to camp. Two were runaways. One was Annabeth. The other was Luke. The third was Thalia
Tough girl. Like her dad, Zeus

[PERCY, spoken]
I thought I was the only kid of the Big Three gods

[GROVER]
You are now. We'd only made it back to camp, but I got nervous and we got lost and by the time we found the hill. Something else found us

And there on the Hill
Up on Half-Blood Hill

A cold wind blew
Dark and chill

For nothing would slake its wrathful will
We had to make a stand-

And maybe if I'd been a little bit braver
Maybe if I stayed behind to fight
But maybe doesn't let me go back and save her

Maybe doesn't make it alright

[GROVER]
Thalia saved us. We only survived because she stayed to hold off the monsters. She paid for her sacrifice with her life. That's when Zeus showed up

[PERCY]
He saved her, right?

[GROVER]
It was too late for that. As she died, he turned her into a tree, so she could stand protecting us, forever. The way I couldn't do for her

There's a tree on the Hill
Up on Half-Blood Hill
That protects us all
And always will

And it's there reminding me
Of all I failed to be
