Blindfolded

(album: Seattle Sessions - 2007)

I'll transcend time
And with my words
I'll build a house for you and I
And we will live there
Together
Alone in surreal lives

Do we just exist?
And does love persist?
The questions of purpose
And love and of destiny
Our conquest for bliss
Is as much hit or miss
As it is skimming the fat
Off of our beliefs

I walk around blindfolded
Talk, I'm not listening
I read through a thousand books
But forgot everything

If grace knows my name
Then I am to blame
For constantly spreading my fear and my shame
If a story exists
It's in our genetics
But still my tongue cannot be trusted
It's so poetic
Like a black widow's kiss
I'm trembling as my muscles give...

I walk around blindfolded
Talk, I'm not listening
I read through a thousand books
But forgot everything

I found out that proof itself was
Not foolproof
And I leave my mind daily
But you'd never see me move
Never see me move
Never see me move
Never see me move
Never see me move
