All my life has been so missable
A goddam crying shame
Eyes to see with ears to hear
while those who're not to blame
Can't do what we take for granted
trapped in their own heads
I know if it were to happen now
I'd wish that I were dead
I complain about my looks
I feel bad 'bout my hair
Jesus that's so sad I admit it now
Why should anyone care
let me be your ears your eyes
your legs I'm what you need
I can't go on living this life
Wrapped in my own greed
I don't imagine I'll go, you never wanted to
be that way, I never wanted to be this way
I love the light that shines and the
sound that's all around
I love the light that shines and the
sound that's all around
And everyone knows
It's hard to do and say what is right
But that's allright
Cos we've got colours for the blind
