Blind Eye

Album: Forever Endeavour (2013)

  • Off in a world of our own
    Where the discordant tone
    Of unrest never riles
    Our sleepy town of denial

    Where all of the tears people cry
    Fall on deaf ears
    For we turn a blind eye

    Off on our way to the stars
    Over discos and bars
    No rest for the like
    Of the wicked despite
    Knowing all of the tears people cry

    May fall on deaf ears
    If we turn a blind eye
    We could lose a lot of sleep if we weren't so numb
    To the steady stream of those who struggle in the night
    Through the tunnel at the end of the light

    God must have gone fishing now
    With all that hell's dishing out
    One question have I
    Don't expect a reply though

    All of the tears people cry
    Do they fall on deaf ears?
    Do you just turn a blind eye?
