Blind

so many miles away
but right here on my screen
I don't know what to say
about the things I've seen

people dying for no reason
lost their right to live for free
we all pay the price it seems
mothers crying while they watch their children bleed

I will never understand
an eye for an eye
I will never fail to see
how we'd all end up blind

I've watched it all in vein
don't know what to believe
how can the greatest gift of love
be the hardest to receive

people wanting to believe
but they're bound to those who lead
we all pay the price it seems
have we forgotten just what it's like to need

I will never understand
an eye for an eye
I will never fail to see
how we'd all end up blind

now I can never change the world with a song
because I could never get everyone to sing along

I will never understand
an eye for an eye
I will never fail to see
how we'd all end up blind

and I will never change the world
no not I, no not I
I will someday fail to see
‘cause we'll all end up blind
