Canyons

Her body’s shaking
It’s after midnight
And everyone’s fast asleep
She’s on her knees
And feeling weaker
Than ever before
She’s got that look in her eyes
She wants be clean
But she doesn’t want for them to know
All the ugly that she’s done and seen
Oh I wish someone would help me
Can you help me?

Cause I just wanna be loved
It’s all that I’m holding onto

He works his fingers
Down to the bone
He’s got emotion
But doesn’t show it
And so he lives
In competition
With everything
He’s got those lies in his eyes
And tears on his cheek
some children at home
He doesn’t know but he wants to
And he cries out please
I’m down in a canyon
in a canyon

And I just wanna be loved
It’s all that I’m holdin onto

We rise and we fall
And we run ourselves in circles
We keep our insides all locked down
Til we break

At the bottom of it all
At the bottom of it all
At the bottom of it all
That’s where you’ll find hope
That’s where you’ll find hope
