I want to be blind
Oblivious bliss
Ignorance is bliss
No lust for beauty
The good so hard to find
No tears for the pictures
Plastered in the papers
Of war
Of poverty
Of hunger
Of innocence
Destroyed
For sick mens dreams
The blind are not haunted
By the crystal visions
The girl with bare feet
Crying in the street
The teenage kids
With scars in their eyes
The lonely old man
Sick on the bus on the way home
To the streets
Sights of desperation
Degradation
Dehumanisation
The world moves in slow motion
The story has no beginning or end
Users use
Victims are victimised
Life goes on
Shouldn't hide away
The blind can still hear
Hear young mums
Shouting to the learning
Hear the bombs
Feel the tension
Hear the cries
Of beaten children
I'd have to be deaf
No chance of change
It hurts
I'd like to be blind and deaf
