Micah Tyler - Story I Tell Lyrics

I was the harlet sitting down by the well

I was the leper who was told not to tell

I was so paralyzed I never had moved

Until four 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

Oh 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 who was lost but not found

I was made saved the day the swine were all drowned

I was the thief that was hung out to die

But the Son of Man looked at my cross I was bearing and decided to give me life

Oh 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 chain on my dream

And when you see me everyday and

You look the other way it's like a slap across my cheek

Oh nobody knows the troubles I've 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
