They're Blind Lyrics - Replacements

The demands made upon you 

Are hard to live up to 

It's futile to try and deny 

And the things you hold dearly 

Are scoffed at and yearly 

Judged once and then left aside 

Cause they're blind 

They hold you too close to the light 

And I see what they only might if they'd learn 

But they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind 

To the brown-eyed beholder 

See the chip on your shoulder 

That fools everyone to believe 

That you're so hard to talk to 

And so easy to [read] through 

Yet nobody looks past your sleeve, yeah

Cause they're blind 

They hold you too close to the light 

And I see what they only might if they learn 

But they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind 

They only like what they can see 

An' what they can't, they just can't agree 

If you run to me, run, run 

Only like the day with her 

Only like a date with her 

Then you'll run back 

Then you'll run back blind 

Cause they're blind 

They hold you too close to the light 

And I see what they only might if they'd learn 

But they're letting you burn 'cause they're blind

An old man said to me 

Go home and take it easy 

And run to me, run, run 

Only like a date with her 

Only one more day with her 

Then I'll run back 

Then we'll run back blind 

They hold you too close to the light 

And I see what they only might if they learn 

But they're letting us burn 

Cause they're blind
