I should have seen it coming, but I didn't have the time
Far to busy grafting to pick up on the signs
It came up through the static and hit me from behind
I should have seen it coming, but I didn't have the time
I should have seen it coming, but I looked the other way
I didn't need the trouble messing up my day
I figured if I walk on by somebody else could pay
I should have seen it coming, but I looked the other way
ย
I'm gonna climb the highest mountain
And struggle with all my might
To see if it's fog that's dimmed my senses
Or the fading of the light
ย
I should have seen it coming, but I just couldn't see
How such a thing could happen to someone like me
Thought that I was in control, but I was in jeopardy
I should have seen it coming, but I just couldn't see
ย
I'm gonna climb the highest mountain
And struggle with all my might
To see if it's fog that's dimmed my senses
Or the fading of the light
ย
I should have seen it coming, but I didn't understand
That hubris is the enemy of best laid plans
Seemed like I was riding high, but my head was in the sand
I should have seen it coming, but I didn't understand
