I Was There

I was there And nothing hurt Never the same Never the same Now it's all been done Again and again Again and again It's all been done Can you see me now? Can you see me now? Have I fallen down? Have I fallen down? Can you see me now? Can you see me now? Have I fallen down? Have I fallen down? Well, now I'm living Like a normal man And desire is out The window Now something must be done But nothing will be done To avert my eyes From nothing Now, I didn't know No, I didn't know Was I looking away When I regained my life? No, I didn't know No, I didn't know I was looking away When I regained my life Well, do you see these hands Gone scaly and old? Like another son Like another son And do you see this back That I never see? I let it suffer for me Wherever I go Nothing to be done There's nothing to be done But I'm going to do What I've never done It was never the same It was never the same They suffered for us When we stared them down Never the same Never the same But they let us be born Into God's good air There was a way around And there's a way around But I'm damned if I Can find it
