Way Down Low Lyrics

I saw her stand before the mirror and gather up her courage
The world's a scary place to be a woman
Every day she goes outside, and hopes someone will look inside
And every day it fails, but she's determined

He's restless as he sits down at the table in the corner
He thought this time he'd do a little better
But when she said she was in love, he said that he had had enough
He knew she'd get too close if he would let her

And we've all thought we felt it,
For a moment, thought we felt it

CHORUS:
Way down low, in our bones
Way down deep,
oh we can barely hear a cry
Way down low, beneath the soul
There is a fire we have held too long inside
(Way down low)

I saw her laugh and hope they didn't see that they had hurt her
She thought she should be used to them by now
It all had happened years ago, but people just don't let things go, I guess
It's hard to find forgiveness in a small town

He's losing sleep and spending every waking hour at work
Sounds ambitious, but he's going through the motions
The busy-ness only conceals the worthlessness he really feels,
So he's putting all his hope in a promotion

And we've all thought we felt it
For a moment, thought we felt it

CHORUS

And I just want to raise the question,
What if there is more?
If it's emptiness we're feeling,
Is there something we're made for

CHORUS
