Eyes closed, deep breath The hands of the clock don't stop What's happening in places I don't know? What are you seeing, whom I don't know? Let me see all that's there to see Let me hear all that's there to hear The future is unknown as we fumble in the darkness Out or safe? Hey, stop it with the blindfolding 3D TV ready to consume Even its contents are slim and easy The important parts are pixelated “No trespa**ing from here” Lynching information across the waves It feels better to cry for a tv series Than for lives lost in a faraway country There's rails in place to decide even what we shed tears for, feelings' bargain sales Once we've learned how to close our eyes in front of most things We'll allow anything to happen, won't we? Spelling out “irresponsibility” as “kindness” Neon shining over a fake smile What's the deal? Even blinking is a waste What on earth is going on? A few words from above: “There are no problems” Blindness They don't want their hands to get dirty So they soil their hearts only and keep a clean appearance High end brands and dark sungla**es Pitch black down to their wrists A rap star under a black spotlight Smoke from a caster, smells awful With all the stars that exist Everyone politely shows such gratitude for the stars and stripes Inside and outside copy & paste Happily k**ing each other's personality Orderly queueing in a single line Always saying “It's trendy in NY right now” Getting carried away is what trends are about And before you know it you're falling head first down a waterfall The “justice” people use is a card Hiding the front and back and just pushing the joker onto us Cross-fading Love and Hate A masquerade wearing thin masks There isn't enough happiness for everyone Money, Cash, Hoes day trade The things we used to be able to see disappear from sight If you don't try hard to see them they disappear from sight The dream people dream as an escape On the back of their eyelids is short-lived What's the deal? He's not the person I used to know What on earth is going on? Sorry, that's out of jurisdiction Blindness
