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)
