Swans - Blind Lyrics

Now some of us are weak, and some endure
And some people live their lives, with a violence that's pure and clean
But I saw a man cry once, down on his knees
In the corner of a darkened cell, and his pain meant nothing to me

But I was younger then, and young men never die
When I walked out in the Sun, I was strong, clear minded
And blind

I don't say a prayer for anyone
It doesn't do any good
And please don't ask me a question, you'll just be misunderstood
And if you could step inside me, you'd feel what hatred brings
And if you saw with my eyes
You'd see what self-deception means

I was younger once, and I created a lie
And though my body was strong, I was self-deluded, confident
And blind

Now show some pity, for the weak of will
Because when we're drinking, we can never be filled
And show some understanding, for the lonely fool
Because when l'm drinking, l'm out of control

No I was never young, and nothing has transpired
And when I look in the mirror, I feel dead, I feel cold
I am blind
