Micah Tyler - The Story I Tell lyrics

I was the harlot sitting down by the well I was the leper who was told not to tell I was so paralyzed, I never had moved Until 4 of my friends who wouldn't give in went and busted up the roof I was the widow who gave up my last dime I was the blind man with the mud in his eye I was the woman known by too many men And as I covered my face, He uncovered His grace, as I heard stones hit the sand Nobody knew the troubles I'd seen Nobody knew my shame Nobody knew the places I'd been I didn't know how to change He saw a hope that I did not see He saw a better way And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell Is that you don't even know my name I was the prodigal once lost but now found I was made sane the day the swine were all drowned I was the thief that was hung up to die But the Son the Man looked at my cross I was bearing And decided to give me life Nobody knew the troubles I'd seen Nobody knew my shame Nobody knew the places I'd been I didn't know how to change He saw a hope that I did not see He saw a better way And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell Is that you don't even know my name Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Even knows my name I am the homeless wandering round on your street I live across the world with nothing to eat I'm locked in prison with a chain on my dreams And when you see me every day, and you look the other way It's like a slap across my cheek Nobody knows the troubles I'd seen Nobody knows my shame Nobody knows the places I'd been I don't know how to change He sees a hope that I do not see He sees a better way And the unbelievable thing about the story I tell Is that you don't even know my name See the unbelievable thing about the story I tell Is that you don't even know my name Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Even knows my name Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Nobody, nobody Even knows my name
