Lyrics to A Blind Eye

A blind eye

A troubled soul

Just look the other way

Instead of taking control

It's like a gun to your head

A game of Russian Roulette

You fight the good fight

Come on and place your bets

Ignore the situation

When you knew it all along

Gas on the fire

Burning way too long

Contamination, deprivation

Face it, don't have a clue

Now what you gonna do?



So tell me

But I don't think that you could

Can you save me

Things just end up how they should

We all know what is right

Without admitting what is wrong

Still at the end of our day

Selfishly we carry on



A closer look

It's something you can't fake

The transparency is showing

Everything at stake

A blind eye turns

Without a sense of remorse

Right off the tracks

And now we're changing course



Now our number's up, yeah

And it's a fucked up feeling

Pounding out of my chest

And now I'm barely breathing

Well don't look now

It's about to hit the ceiling

Now all eyes are on you



So tell me

But I don't think that you could

Can you save me

Things just end up how they should

We all know what is right

Without admitting what is wrong

Still at the end of our day

Selfishly we carry on



We are the subjects

We are the blind despair

Waiting here for just a word



We are the subjects

We are the blind despair

Waiting here for just a word

But no one cares



So tell me

But I don't think that you could

Can you save me

Things just end up how they should

We all know what is right

Without admitting what is wrong

Still at the end of our day

Selfishly we carry on



We still carry on
