Blind

[Verse 1]
Now some of us are weak
And some endure
And some people live their life
With a violence that’s pure and clean
But I saw a man cry once
Down on his knees
In the corner of a darkened cell
And his pain meant nothing to me

[Chorus 1]
But I was younger then
And young men never die
When I walked out in the sun
I was strong, clear-minded and blind

[Verse 2]
Now don’t say a prayer for anyone
It doesn’t do any good
Please don’t ask me a question
You'll just be misunderstood
And if you could step inside me
You'd feel what hatred brings
And if you saw with my eyes
You'd see what self-deception means

[Chorus 2]
I was younger once
And I created a lie
And though my body was strong
I was self-deluded, confident and blind

[Verse 3]
Now show some pity
For the weak of will
Because when we’re drinking
We can never be filled
Show some understanding
For the lonely fool
Because when I’m drinking
I am out of control

[Chorus 3]
I was never young
Nothing has transpired
But when I look in the mirror
I feel dead, I feel cold, I am blind

[Outro]
I am blind, mmm
I am blind, mmm
I am blind, mmm
Mmm
