Replacements - They're Blind Lyrics
The demands made upon youAre hard to live up toIts futile to try and denyAnd the things you hold dearlyAre scoffed at and yearlyJudged once and then left asidecause theyre blindThey hold you too close to the lightAnd I see what they only might if theyd learnBut theyre letting you burn cause theyre blindTo the brown-eyed beholderSee the chip on your shoulderThat fools everyone to believeThat youre so hard to talk toAnd so easy to [read] throughYet nobody looks past your sleeve, yeahcause theyre blindThey hold you too close to the lightAnd I see what they only might if they learnBut theyre letting you burn cause theyre blindThey only like what they can seeAn what they cant, they just cant agreeIf you run to me, run, runOnly like the day with herOnly like a date with herThen youll run backThen youll run back blindcause theyre blindThey hold you too close to the lightAnd I see what they only might if theyd learnBut theyre letting you burn cause theyre blindAn old man said to meGo home and take it easyAnd run to me, run, runOnly like a date with herOnly one more day with herThen Ill run backThen well run back blindThey hold you too close to the lightAnd I see what they only might if they learnBut theyre letting us burncause theyre blind
