we never saw it coming

Singer:maxwell

blindsided by them

recording as i stare

the cross is burning

no chance to overcome

i feel them parking

i guess my night has come

is this real

no restitution

i am here

falling in circles far

sorrowfully i fall

we never knew at all

we never saw it coming

like a truck that's passing

a gun that's blasting

i feel the lashing

we've never been so divided

scattered and spread among

like useless ashes

the phoenix overcomes

and what can i do

i know

it's all i want

uncontrollable

we never saw it like the bombs that's blasting

religious clashing

the world is asking

we never saw it

we never

never saw it

coming. coming.
