Does Anybody Hear Her

She is running a hundred miles an hour

In the wrong direction

And she is trying but the canyon's ever-widening

In the depths of her cold heart

So she sets out on another misadventure just to find

She's another two years older and she's three more steps behind

Does anybody hear her?

Can anybody see?

Oh, does anybody even know she's going down today?

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

Searchin' for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her?

Can anybody see?

She is yearning for shelter and affection that she never found at home

And she is searching for a hero to ride in, to ride in and save the day

And in walks her Prince Charming and he knows just what to say

Momentary lapse of reason and she gives herself away

Does anybody hear her?

Can anybody see?

Oh, does anybody even know she's going down today?

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her?

Can anybody see?

If judgement looms under every steeple

If lofty glances from lofty people

Can't see past her scarlet letter, and we've never even met her

If judgement looms under every steeple

If lofty glances from lofty people

Can't see past her scarlet letter, and we've never even met her (Never even met her)

Never even met her

Does anybody hear her?

Does anybody see?

Oh, does anybody even know she's going down today?

Under the shadow of our steeple

With all the lost and lonely people

Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her?

Does anybody see? (Does anybody see?)

Does anybody even know she's going down today?

In the shadow of our steeple

(Under the shadow of our steeple) With all the lost and lonely people

(The lost and lonely people) Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her?

Does anybody see?

He is running a hundred miles an hour

In the wrong direction
