BLINDNESS


I was on the outside when you said
You needed me
I was looking at myself
I was blind, I could not see. I WILL FOLLOW

No-one, no-one is blinder
Than he who will not see
No-one, no-one is blinder
Than me. I THREW A BRICK THROUGH A WINDOW

Open up, open up, to the Lamb Of God
To the love of He
Who made the blind to see. TOMORROW

Nobody here taking orders
When love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs. IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS

Blinded, you lost your way
In the side streets and the alleyways. ANGEL OF HARLEM

You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness.
ALL I WANT IS YOU

I was young, not dumb
Just wishing to be blinded
By you, brand new
And we were pilgrims on our way. THE MIRACLE (OF JOEY RAMONE)

Love is blindness, I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night around me?
Oh, my love,
Blindness. LOVE IS BLINDNESS

I'm not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you take a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
I’­m staring at the sun
Not the only one
Who's happy to go blind. STARING AT THE SUN
