Where Was I To Know Lyrics

How many times have I said to myself
This means nothing to me
What doesn't kill only makes me stronger
So comforting to believe
In these strange days I've found
That I'm a ghost in my own life
Can you forgive these bloodstained hands
And trust the scars have healed out of sight

Where was I to know?
We were running out of reasons
Afraid to just let go
We were crashing into pieces
But where was I...
Where was I to know?

I'm so tired of feeling sick and tired
Shattered to my very soul
A dying light in a coal-black sky
I'm too young to feel so old
With hungry voices we stand in a circle
Chalked upon the floor
We're waiting for grace
Is it all in vain,
Or do we count the ways once more?

Where was I to know?
We were running out of reasons
Afraid to just let go
We were crashing into pieces
But where was I...
Where was I to know?

Where was I to know?

Where was I to know?
Where was I to know?

You were running out of reasons
Afraid to just let go
We were crashing into pieces
But where was I to know?
I'm humbled by your patience
In time the spirit grows
Well, bring me to your garden
But where was I...
Where was I to know?

Where was I to know?
