Land Of The Blind
Steve Gilmore (c) 2012

You don't look left, right, up or down
Nothings going to interest you in this dirty old town
Keep your eyes shut, see nothing at all
Try and convince yourself you're clever, you're on the ball

Doesn't matter what the rest of them do
Sure as hell ain't going to get through to you
In the land of the blind, in the land of the blind, in the land of the blind
Who refuse to see

That look, that smile, that passing glance
The mist on the river, the trees and plants
The clouds and the rain and the workings of ants
A treasure beyond compare right there in your hands

Doesn't matter what the rest of them do
Sure as hell ain't going to get through to you
In the land of the blind, in the land of the blind, in the land of the blind
Who refuse to see

You've got eyes in your head that see nothing at all
Ears that hear but refuse the call
None of it real and none of it true
How is anyone ever going to get through to you

Doesn't matter what the rest of them do
Sure as hell ain't going to get through to you
In the land of the blind, in the land of the blind, in the land of the blind
Who refuse to see
