Blaze Bayley - Land of the Blind lyrics
[Blaze Bayley - Land of the Blind lyrics]
Tried so hard just to live
And forget and forgive
And to live by their rules
And to try to fit in I would do anything
Like a poor blinded fool
You must do what they say
And not question the way
"That was chosen for you"
I thought that was the way
That life had to be
Until I found out the truth
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
Now they think I don't see
Poor derision on me with their hypocrisy
Cynical egotist, government hypnotist
Too small minded to see
And the truth is so bright
Like a blinding light
My true path I could find
Theories incomplete sceptics I must defeat
For my own peace of mind
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down (down)
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you
Tried so hard just to live
And forget and forgive
And to live by their rules
You must do what they say
Not question the way
"That was chosen for you"
I thought that was the way
That life had to be
Until I found out the truth
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
And forget and forgive
And to live by their rules
And to try to fit in I would do anything
Like a poor blinded fool
You must do what they say
And not question the way
"That was chosen for you"
I thought that was the way
That life had to be
Until I found out the truth
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
Now they think I don't see
Poor derision on me with their hypocrisy
Cynical egotist, government hypnotist
Too small minded to see
And the truth is so bright
Like a blinding light
My true path I could find
Theories incomplete sceptics I must defeat
For my own peace of mind
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down (down)
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you down
You think you got freedom now
That's how they hold you
Tried so hard just to live
And forget and forgive
And to live by their rules
You must do what they say
Not question the way
"That was chosen for you"
I thought that was the way
That life had to be
Until I found out the truth
Now I open my eyes
It's just like I was blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
In the land of the blind
(I was blind to the truth)
