Does Anybody Hear Her

She is running
 A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
 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
 Or 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?
 She is yearning
 For shelter and affection
 That she never found at home
 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
 Or 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
 They can't see past her scarlet letter
 And we 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 never even met her (never even met her)
 Never even met her
 Does anybody hear her?
 Does anybody see
 Or 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 hear her?)
 Does anybody see? (Does anybody see?)
 Does anybody even know
 She's going down today?
 Under the shadow of our steeple (shadow of our steeple)
 With all the lost and lonely people (lost and lonely people)
 Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
 Does anybody hear her?
 Does anybody see?
