Lyrics:

2nd Degree - Blind Faith [10:21]

music by Myung, Petrucci, Portnoy, Rudess

lyrics by James LaBrie



Hear me, speaking

Asking why I even bother

Tell me, how you

Live from day to day



Take your time and look around

Is this utopia you've found



Sick of all of this

The suffering and we just carry on

Isn't it time we care and lose the hate

Understand our fears



But we do all that we can

Justify the means to an end

Sorry you must excuse me

I've painted my own Mona Lisa

She's fixed everything

Now I'm spoiled beyond my wildest dreams



Blind Faith we have in you

Invisible

Which direction do we choose

Predictable



Take the streets, the beaten path

Our system works for whom I ask

Yeah I have it all

The bigger house

An iron fence to keep you out



When did we all let you down

So come Messiah show us how how

Our human spirit drowns

Don't think you hear me now

No sign of you around

What is it you hope to see



Blind Faith we have in you

Invisible

Which direction do we choose

Predictable

Give us something we can use

Desirable

Cause you've done all you can do

Regrettable



And still life pushes on

With or without you

We've got to carry on

Our will, will guide us to

A place where we belong

Know there lies the truth

I am the believer who gives purpose on to you



I don't think we let you down

So come Messiah show us how how

Throw us a pure lifeline

I hope that you hear me

Too proud to be around

There's more to us than we see now



Blind Faith we have in you

Invisible

Which direction do we choose

Predictable

Self ignorance, abuse

Desirable

Cause you've done all you can do

Incredible
