lyrics

The tide is rising it’s going to drown the shore
Could you tell me when it floods?
My eyes are working fine buta ll i see is dark
And you can’t tell the blind to guide himself

Though I am healthy I’m blind as Hazel Motes
I see no hope in the world
There’s only darkness covering the void
Are you blind as well or is it just me?
Are you blind as well or is it just me?

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind

We see no bright light, but we keep going on
Our feet are heavy but strong
We wanna have hope and so we follow those who guide
Funny thing, they can see as much as we do
It’s a funny thing they can see as much as we do.

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind

So we are blind men; we haven’t always been
Many of us have done this to themselves
When times are bitter who wants to open up their eyes
Easier to be guided by the blind
Yes, it’s easier to be guided by the blind.

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind

Yeah, we’re blind and deaf and dumb, who’s gonna guide us?
The blind will guide the blind
