Lyrics:

The demands made upon youAre hard to live up to It's futile to try and denyAnd the things you hold dearly
Are scoffed at and yearlyJudged once and then left aside'Cause they're blind They hold you too close to the
lightand I see what they only might if they'd learnbut they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind To the brown-eye
d beholderSee the chip on your shoulderThat fools everyone to believethat you're so hard to talk toAnd so easy to [read] th
roughYet nobody looks past your sleeve, yeah'Cause they're blindThey hold you too close to the lightand I see what they on
ly might if they learnbut they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind They only like what they can seeAn' what they
can't, they just can't agreeIf you run to me, run, runOnly like the day with herOnly like a date with her then yo
u'll run back Then you'll run back blind 'Cause they're blindThey hold you too close to the lightand I s
ee what they only might if they'd learnbut they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind An old man said to me Go
home and take it easy And run to me, run, runOnly like a date with herOnly one more day with herThen I'll run
back Then we'll run back blind They hold you too close to the lightAnd I see what they only might
if they learn But they're letting us burn'Cause they're blind
