We didn't know what to do so we ran,
Looking for somewhere to hide - no hope,
Finding a crowd that would call my name,

And I found you,

Rolling up my sleeves and running,

Everything is closing in now,
Looking for a cause to fight for,
Nothing seems that obvious now,

Never ever had it easy,
But I'm feeling more at home now,
It is showing up obliquely,

But no-one will ever see me,

We didn't know...


They say you've got a friend in Jesus,
I don't quite realise it somehow,

I can make it on my own now,
Have no choice - I'm forced to always,
No escape for this avenger,

I'm not sure I even want to,
Pretty trapped and in my rut now,
Just like I knew I would be,


We didn't know...


Nothing hurts like ugly silence,
I can't cope - I'm turning back now,
Why won't someone call out my name?

It will never happen somehow,
Coping day by day but knowing,
It's a transient, new phenomenon,

Feeling like I'm fast imploding,
But I know there's no pretending,


We didn't know...
We didn't know...
