I knew you were afraid
Because I was too

I knew your back hurts
And your knees screamed
Because mine did too

I knew you heard him
In the constant drunken stupor
Because I did too

I knew that he was your only hope
That without him
You would be an orphan
Because I would be too

I knew that as you looked at me
You wanted to protect me
Because I wanted to protect you too

And as the lights went out

I knew that you were in trouble
That you could feel him coming closer
Because I could feel it too

And as he grabbed you

I knew you knew what was going to happen
Because I did too

I knew you want me to help you
Because
Believe me Lucy
I wanted to too
