The Things You Don't See Coming - Tonedeff

They’re touches that you never feel

Cuts that happen in the heat of your fight

You’re just the last to know it’s real

And though you can’t recall, they sting in your side

Something’s coming.

Just beyond your feelers

They’re warnings that you never hear

Till the glass explodes — it’s seen with your eyes

Forever captive of your fears

Your distraction holds your ransom so high

There’s no signs, no rhyme, no reason, why and how, right now

Once you know it’s over — you’re the last to find out

These are the things you don’t see coming

Tie the blindfold tight

These are the words of another victim

Standing still as they’re killed by the whiplash
