We Never Saw It Coming - 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…
