Dan Fogelberg - Blind To The Truth lyrics

In the overcrowded cities where the nights are bright as day You spend your weekly paycheck and turn your eyes away From the crisis we've created with our self-indulgent ways Living like there's no tomorrow, well that just might be the case Now they're tearing down the forests and the jungles of brazil Without a second thought about the species that they k** But extinction is forever and still the forests fall And push it ever closer to extinction for us all But you're so blind to the truth, blind to the truth And you can't see nothing Cause you're so blind to the truth, blind to the truth And the judgment day is coming Now the politicians bicker on the early evening news Pledging their allegiance to whoever they can use The corporate bosses snicker as they watch the profits soar They don't care what they make next month just as long as it is more They take our farms and marshlands, drive nature to the wall Just so they can build another goddamn shopping mall And it doesn't seem to matter if they cannot see the stars As long as they can keep on building obsolescent cars They're so blind to the truth, blind to the truth No they can't see nothing They're so blind to the truth, blind to the truth But the judgment day is coming Now you cannot drink the water and you cannot breathe the air The sky is ripping open and you still don't seem to care The soil is tired and toxic and unable to provide The clock is running out and there is nowhere left to hide Now there's laws that we must live by and they're not the laws of man Can't you see the shadow that moves across this land The future is upon us and there's so much we must do And you know i can't ignore it and my friend neither can you Unless you're blind to the truth, blind to the truth And you can't see nothing You're so blind to the truth, blind to the truth But the judgment day is coming
