Blinded (Acoustic)

(album: Unplugged - 2022)

Just an old friend coming over now to visit you and
That's what I've become
I let myself in though I know I'm not supposed to but
I never know when I'm done

I see you fogging up the mirror
Vapor round your body glistens in the shower
And I want to stay right here and go down on you for an hour
Or stay, and let the day just fade away
In wild dedication, take the moment of hope
And let it run, and never look back at all the damage we have done now
To each other
To each other
To each other

'Cause when I see you, it's like I'm staring down the sun
I'm blinded
There's nothing left to do
Still I see you

I never believed that things they happen for a reason and
They never go as planned
I wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost that you returned but
You're passed where you understand

Now her appetite is blown, little else is known
Except she's a little angry, grabs a towel and looks away
And the heat fades with the day
And I fall down on what to say
Oh something clean let me be clever
Hey oh well whatever
But that's not what I mean
Where we've been has left us burned
Still I won't turn now from a fight you know I'll never win

'Cause when I see you, you know all the things I've done
And I'm blinded
Like I'm staring down the sun
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun

I'm blinded
I'm blinded
I'm blinded

Time passes and it tells us what we're left with
We become the things we do
Me I'm a fool, spent from defiance, yeah you got me but
I didn't give up on you

Icarus is not a tee shirt or a swan song, no
He is born again, it's not easy being me
But I can't promise I will mend or bend
When you believe that we are fixed now from our birth
And I've just fallen back to earth
Still you know I'll try again
'Cause I believe that we are lucky
We are golden we have stolen manners
In the days we were one

So when I see you, despite all that we've become
I'm still blinded
But I'm staring down the sun
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun
Staring down the sun
Staring down the sun
Staring down the sun

When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
