F - Blind Lyrics

F - Blind Lyrics

1) Vocal Under A Bloodlight

Last night you said I was cold, untouchable
A lonely piece of action from another town
I just want to be free, I'm happy to be lonely
Can't you stay away?
Just leave me alone with my thoughts.
Just a runaway, just a runaway,
I'm saving myself.

2) Passing Strangers

Strung out below a necklace of carnival lights
Cold moan, held on the crest of the night
I'm too tired to fight

So now we're passing strangers, at single tables
Still trying to get over,
Still trying to write love songs for passing strangers
All those passing strangers.

And the twinkling lies, all those twinkling lies,
Sparkle with the wet ink on the paper.

3) Mylo

Oh I remember Toronto when Mylo went down,
And we sat and cried on the phone
I never felt so alone,
He was the first of our own
Some of us go down in a blaze of obscurity
Some of us go down in a haze of publicity
The price of infamy, the edge of insanity

Another Holiday Inn, another temporary home,
And an interviewer threatened me with a microphone,
'Talk to me, won't you tell me your stories.'

So I talked about conscience and I talked about pain
and he looked out the window and it started to rain
I thought maybe I've already gone crazy.
So I reached for a bottle and he reached for the door,
And I picked up the sleeping pills crushed on the floor
Inviting me to a casual obscenity.

4) Perimeter Walk

It would be incredible if we could
Retrace all the times that we lived here
All the collisions
Wasted, I've never been so wasted
I've never been this far out before

Perimeter walk.
There's a presence here.
I feel could have been ancient,
I could have been mystical

There's a presence,
A childhood, my childhood,
My childhood, childhood, a misplaced childhood,
My childhood, a misplaced childhood,
Give it back to me, give it back to me.
A childhood, that childhood, that childhood,
that childhood, that childhood
Oh please give it back to me.

5) Threshold

I saw a war widow in a launderette,
Washing the memories from her husband's clothes
She had medals pinned to a threadbare greatcoat
A lump in her throat with cemetery eyes

I see convoys curbcrawling West German Autobahns
Trying to pick up a war
They're going to even the score
Oh... I can't take any more
I see black flags on factories,
Soup ladles poised on the lips of the poor
I see children with vacant stares,
Destined for rape in the alleyways
Does anybody care, I can't take any more
Should we say goodbye? Hey

I see priests, politicians
The heroes in black plastic body-bags under nations' flags
I see children pleading with outstretched hands,
Drenched in napalm, this is no Vietnam

I can't take any more, should we say goodbye,
How can we justify?
They call us civilised...

F - Blind Lyrics

ItвЂ™s so easy to criticize
When you live your life with blind-folded eyes
YouвЂ™re so scared that you canвЂ™t relate
To the world outside, and your fear leads to hate
Hate

ItвЂ™s so cushy to kick back
And take the easy way out
You think youвЂ™re GodвЂ™s gift to mankind
I say youвЂ™re blind

Blind

YouвЂ™ve invented a world of your own
Where your narrow mind lives all alone
Buy more guns, call it patriotism
Your ignorance turns into racism

Racism

Its so cushy to kick back
And take the easy way out
You think youвЂ™re GodвЂ™s gift to mankind I say your blind

Blind

F - Blind Lyrics

what if I'm right and you are wrong?
what if you knew it all along?
what if I figured out that I did not belong?

what if it always bothered me?
what if I never did believe?
would it be wrong if I decided I should leave?

if I pretended I was blind
and struck it from my mind
would it still be there?
what if I'd do anything to make it seem all right
it's all right

what if it's all inside my head?
what if those words were never said?
would it be easier if I could just forget?

what if I didn't run away?
could it be any other way?
would it be wrong if I decided I should stay?

F - Blind Lyrics

Bring your head against the wall
So I can see where I will fall
Bring your mind into my head
Find your playing den

All in all itВґs just a start
All we had was more than that
All in all I canВґt go back
To where we started out

So bring my head up to Mont Blanc
So you will see what you would find
Bring my head against the wall
So you can see where I will go

All in all itВґs just your fault
Made me feel respect no more
All in all I canВґt go back
Blind my mind inside

Bring my mind inside your head
So you can see where I went then
Bring your head against the wall
So I can see where I will fall

All in all itВґs just your fault
Made me feel respect no more
All in all I canВґt go back
Blind My mind inside
Blind My mind inside

All your lies
Made me feel respect no more
All your lies
Blind My mind inside
All your lies
Made me feel respect no more
All your lies
Made me feel respect no more
All your lies
Blind My mind inside
All your lies
Made me feel respect no more
All your lies
Blind My mind inside
Blind My mind inside
Blind My mind inside

F - Blind Lyrics

When are we going to finally meet destruction
When are we gonna finally meet disorder

Pretend you're not blind and just see there's no more time

Try to make what will break
Just another fool in a blind world
Lived a lie with all the hype
Just another fool like the other ones
When are we going to finally meet destruction
When are we going to finally meet destruction
Pretend you're not blind and just see there's no more time
Try to make what will break
Just another fool in a blind world

Somewhere inside you tried to hide just another fool like the other ones just like the other ones

F - Blind Lyrics

Blinded by science, I'm on the run
Blinded by science, where do I belong?
What's in the future, has it just begun
Blinded by science, I'm on the run

I worry 'bout the world that we live in
I'm worried by all the confusion
I wonder 'bout the lies I've been reading
I wonder where this madness is leading

Is this a road going nowhere?
Or is someone leading us somewhere?
I can't believe we're here for no reason
There must be something we can believe in

Blinded by science, I'm on the run
I'm not an appliance, so don't turn me on
What's in the future, has it just begun
Blinded by science, I'm on the run

What's in the future, has it just begun
Blinded by science, I'm on the run

I worry 'bout the world that we live in
I'm worried by all the confusion
I wonder 'bout the lies I've been reading
I wonder where this madness is leading

Is this a road going nowhere?
Is someone leading us somewhere?
I can't believe we're here for no reason
There must be something we can believe in

Blinded by science, I'm on the run
I'm not an appliance, don't turn me on
What's in the future, has it just begun
Blinded by science, I'm on the run

Blinded by science, I'm on the run
I'm blinded by science, on the run

F - Blind Lyrics

Blurred vision inside of here.
I must destroy my pattern of thought.
My sight inside a world of dreams is a chain about to break.
My mind cannot deny this fact that what I choose to see is not of me but what I feed my eyes.
In my head this battle goes on.
Cleanse me.

IвЂ™ve been blinded by desires of my flesh.
Dreams of false reality haunt my head.
Hear my cry oh God.
Drowning in a vision of evil I must reverse the path I see.
Destruction in my mind.
Gives IвЂ™m left blinded.

[...]

Seek the mind of God

F - Blind Lyrics

What's this, conscience with claws
The protest without the cause
Straight through drawing to the air
Run you over to get it here
Lost in my own insides
Any tool to fix it right
Never free from myself
Always running from myself

Can't see me in my blindside
Stopping tomorrow tonight

Forget about feelings use you like they use me
Can't even see you in the daylight
Fanatic full of facts tonight
Nothing's free
Anything, corrosive magnet
Dissolving everything within

Can't see me in my blindside
Stopping tomorrow tonight
Blindside they see my blindside
Stopping tomorrow tonight

Got what I wanted to know displaced
Override guy reason to win
Winning's not for everyone
The darkest dirt again
If I turn on my lights out
I won't have to clean my house
I won't have to clean my house

Can't see me in my blindside
Stopping tomorrow tonight
Blindside they see my blindside
Stoppin tomorrow tonight

Can't see me in my blindside
Stopping tomorrow tonight
Blindside they see my blindside
Stoppin tomorrow tonight

F - Blind Lyrics

Now, somebody is out there on a streetcorner preaching about the evils of the people who are voting on the right while I'm working in a kitchen chopping parsley and lettuce and washing up the dishes till the end of the night. When i stumble down the streetcorner to buy myself a pony full of paint thinner, bourbon, a girly mag or two and blah blah blah goes the man on the corner and i'll never understand how it relates to me and you.
What do i know?
What do i care?
If i close my eyes.
I'm blindsided.
In a barroom the Tv is flashing like a fire, and warning of the future like a prophet from the past, the radio is blaring like a siren in the corner, and telling you to prepare for an all out attack, the newspaper reads like a page from the bible and tells us a tale of impending doom, but blind, deaf and dumb are we and all we really care about is who can drink the most before he goes to the bathroom.
