Anything you run from Will eventually catch up No matter if you’re not looking at it or not It will always stay a problem F*ck The Silence was to hard to bear, cause I´ve been living in a constant fear As time ticks by I wonder where my saviour is it must be near, or Will it never come for me? I did nothing wrong in company of other people I can’t believe anyone would arrest me honestly So why did they hunt me down? Have I done something unjustly now? Crying on the ground as they just beat me down Without a reason or is that unfound? Is it treason if you leave your home for your belief, or Is it a reason to be whisked away for low fees? Blindfolds around Better not see what’s going on Being blind is not wrong I can pretend it is gone away Darkness, all around Rifles, ring aloud Blindfolds, give our minds The opportunity to run riot With our imagination Getting ever closer to our final destination I can ask down to the maker what plan He was destilating in that brain of his Will I ever be able To tell my son another tale or Will this train be the final nail in The proverbial pine box? I am not able to live with myself If I can not think freely They will have to fuckin’ break me or go through me Blindfolds around Better not see what’s going on Being blind is not wrong I can pretend it is gone Blindfolds around Better keep them on Or we will not see the light of day again So better keep them on The blue skies Of my home are far behind Bars and wire That keep my head glued inside Hopefully I can bide my time So I could feel the sunshine And view those skies again As a free man But moving clouds of caustic lies They have made toxic rise In the nation and in the publics’ eyes We have been demonized As tonight is the night that I could die I dream of a better world for my child I dream of a better world for my child Blindfolds around You better not see what’s going on It’s not wrong I can’t pretend Blindfolds around Better keep them on Or we will nah not see the light of day again So better keep them on Imagine, a time and place Where our minds could take shape (Keep them on) Without violence or hate Now what would that take? (Keep them on) Is it so difficult To give each other space? (Keep them on) We’re not different at all We’re all the human race (Yea) We have been doing great These last decades (Keep them on) So why are we now Giving up and turning tail? (Keep them on) It takes no effort to make someone’s day (Keep them on) And even less to not take it away (Yea) You know, what’s weird is is When you finally realise that something is wrong And someone else acknowledges that It’s it’s like the whole world has changed Without anything actually being different at all You, no one is as shocked as you are just merely surprised You see yourself change you know Logically you know you haven’t changed at all But still it’s weird to see people To see yourself in the mirror You disassociate with yourself How can how can I be myself if I don’t recognise who I am It really puts into perspective how powerful and fragile our minds can be We don’t realise this at all That shock which shatters you to your core I still look in the mirror sometimes and see a stranger stare back at me
