Blind Mind

from Somewhere Behind EP by Greylines

/

lyrics

One by one they’re stricken blind and broken
In a portrait of conformity they’re frozen
They think they’re thinking what they think right when the
invisible machine has spoken and they

Fall in line to the beat of a drum
until they're voiceless and numb
just killing time
Poisoned their heads with the lies they’ve been fed
believing them as they're said
never asking why
Afraid of the voices that bring the dark to life
They’ll never understand what they never try to find

They’re all afraid
to walk alone down an untraveled path of pain
But I’ll wait out in the rain
with every wonder and disbelief

Every time I look outside it’s all I fucking see
Empty minds and narrow eyes destroying everything
swallowing and following a cold complacency
raping meaning dry and feeding on the shallow certainty that they believe

One by one they’re stricken blind and broken
In a portrait of conformity they're frozen
They think they’re thinking what they think right when the
invisible machine has spoken and they

Hide away
senseless and fake
always surrounding me but I’m not going to brake
I want to scream
until I can’t breath
my eyes roll back into my head and my ears bleed

It’s spreading slowly
A wasted life and a hallow death
It’s spreading slowly
It’s going to spread until there’s no one left
