A Blind Eye

A blind eye
A troubled soul
Just look the other way
Instead of taking control
It's like a gun to your head
A game of Russian Roulette
You fight the good fight
Come on and place your bets
Ignore the situation
When you knew it all along
Gas on the fire
Burning way too long
Contamination, deprivation
Face it, don't have a clue
Now what you gonna do?

So tell me
But I don't think that you could
Can you save me
Things just end up how they should
We all know what is right
Without admitting what is wrong
Still at the end of our day
Selfishly we carry on

A closer look
It's something you can't fake
The transparency is showing
Everything at stake
A blind eye turns
Without a sense of remorse
Right off the tracks
And now we're changing course

Now our number's up, yeah
And it's a fucked up feeling
Pounding out of my chest
And now I'm barely breathing
Well don't look now
It's about to hit the ceiling
Now all eyes are on you

So tell me
But I don't think that you could
Can you save me
Things just end up how they should
We all know what is right
Without admitting what is wrong
Still at the end of our day
Selfishly we carry on

We are the subjects
We are the blind despair
Waiting here for just a word

We are the subjects
We are the blind despair
Waiting here for just a word
But no one cares

So tell me
But I don't think that you could
Can you save me
Things just end up how they should
We all know what is right
Without admitting what is wrong
Still at the end of our day
Selfishly we carry on

We still carry on
