Canyon

(album: Be Here Soon - 2022)

Climbing to the top watching the towers from the canyon
The faces I forgot and all their lives that I abandoned
Could be forever ago, tomorrow, lines are blurred from where I'm standing
Wanting someone else's shoulder for a real and true companion

Anyone
Try to hear your voices but the thorns are growing high
Tell it like it is or save it for another life
My blood is strong
Your heads swelling, hungry double tongues
Trade me darkness for where days are long
Keeps the wolves at bay til summers gone

Had a chosen ally but I lost her understanding
Got lost inside the magic I constructed in a nightmare
Arms outstretched forever fumbling in the dark you hid the feeling well
Lift me higher like you used to
Got no time so are we leaving

Anyone
Try to sing you songs but now my voice is growing tired
Let me have my peace I'll be your rebel blow your mind
My blood is strong
Wait for me like you're forever young
Trade me nights for where the days are long
Keep the wolves at bay til' summers gone

Trying to feel grateful but your self content obstructs
Blinded by their beauty stunned by the sound of your own words
My blood is strong
Hanging by the tip of my own tongue
What a sight from here I see it all
Keep me hanging in now summers gone
