I was out of town when the rain came down
And death came leaking through
But I got the call and I saw you fall
And now I don't know what to do
My friends are dying and I can't raise a hand to help
My friends are dying Jesus they're beyond my help
In my mind I can see his tears
As they don't understand
I could say that love is more than fear but
It's easy to say and hard to stand
My friends are dying and I can't raise a hand to help
My friends are dying Jesus they're beyond my help
Funny how I don't feel safe until I'm making someone else feel sad
Funny how the kids can hate to make up for what they don't have
And death came leaking through
But I got the call and I saw you fall
And now I don't know what to do
My friends are dying and I can't raise a hand to help
My friends are dying Jesus they're beyond my help
In my mind I can see his tears
As they don't understand
I could say that love is more than fear but
It's easy to say and hard to stand
My friends are dying and I can't raise a hand to help
My friends are dying Jesus they're beyond my help
Funny how I don't feel safe until I'm making someone else feel sad
Funny how the kids can hate to make up for what they don't have
