Blinded In Chains

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

And we're at it again

I turn around another fucking war, man

I don't know where to begin

But I'll start with the radical leaders

Their steps we're followin'

Running

Don't go back and fight

Too many you'll lose

(And as clowns you follow suit

Behind the blood between the red and white and blue

But it's too deep for you to see

And everyone eventually will take the step cause

It's in sight you take the left

I'll take the right I fell the hate

You've built for me and I say pay attention baby)

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see

Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease

But it wasn't a sin

A sorry lie in judging every action

And as they're filling your mind with this shit

You forget how to speak and ask all the questions

Business is at hand tonight

Make the people choose

(I see another side in you

But there's not much more I can do from on the outside

Looking in your government is listenin'

To push you on the story of immortal father

Mortal son give them your mind

And all your wealth the cycle will rebirth itself)

If I had it their way I'd burn in Hell

And your future's a fuckin' disaster can't you see

Don't give them all the power

When your future's in desperate trouble baby

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see

Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease

I'd run away tonight

With my mind still intact I'm gonna make it alright

Easier said than done

With no place to hide and having no place to

Running away from condition

I see you but you're running away from

Your scared seducive system

Most would claim I live a lie (I live a lie)

When pointing out it's easy to predict these things (predict these things)

Every color has its side (I have a side)

They live together, vote and most embrace the same dark times

Please help us, please save us

Of course they have control we're all the same

Up on the cross

Crucified their problem drove the nail and let him rot

Family and friends

It won't matter in the end I'm sure they'll understand

Now look at the world and see how the humans bleed

As I sit up here and wonder 'bout

How you sold your mind body and soul

Looking at the fields so green

I know this sounds obscene

I see you're livin' for tomorrow

But decisions you have made will leave you empty

As they thank the Lord the blind can't see

Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease

I'd run away tonight

With my mind still intact I'm gonna make it alright

Easier said than done

With no place to hide and having no place to

Run!

You've fallen asleep in denial

Look at the way we're dyin', Oh

How it ends I'll never know

Just live your life blind like me
