Lyrics to The Blind



shine the light into my eyes

blind me with your ignorance

show me every failure

every tragedy I've caused



shine the light into my eyes

so I can see that I have you down

if you're the only one that matters

I guess I can't complain



shine the light into my eyes

tell me how I have to change

show me how I had it better than you

and how I'll never know your pain



shine your light in my blind eyes

it doesn't help, I still can't see

tell me why I even try

if you'll always be better than me



with my head beneath the ground

I can see it all so clear

I will always let you down

but I will always be here



shine the light into my eyes

show me color in this grey

paint the world around me picture perfect

so there is nothing I can say



shine your light in my blind eyes

it's doesn't help, I still can't see

tell me why I even try

when you'll always be better than me



have I made my mark on this grey world

shone a light into the heart of the things I've left

behind



I want to go back

you know I do

but I can't change what happened to you

and I can't carry this cross any longer

I built it with my own two hands

I sealed it with my lack of strength

and I collapse beneath it's weight again and again



with my head beneath the ground

I can see it all so clear

I will always let you down

but I will always be here
