I often wonder if we met today
Would you even recognise my face?
We could talk through our demons
With steps retraced
Help me to understand your space
All I saw for years was red

Focus my gaze, time elapsed
Pen hits the page and I regret the act
Pages of writing so angry, misguided

Echoes in the canyon sing
I don’t owe you anything
It’s done between you and me
Echoes in the canyon sing
You don’t over her anything
You don’t owe her anything

You buried me, submerged the seed
A lesson learned never again
Will I go down so easily

Tough to break through venom you spewed
What did you do? tell me the truth

Manipulation in the guise of a mother
Some things can never be yours to take
To force forgiveness harbours
Pain like no other
My hands remain steady inside I shake

Echoes in the canyon sing
I don’t owe you anything
It’s done between you and me
Echoes in the canyon sing
You don’t over her anything
You don’t owe her anything
