Artist/Band: Replacements
Lyrics for Song: They're Blind
Lyrics for Album: Don't Tell a Soul [1989]



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'd learn

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



They only like what they can see

And 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 easily,"

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'd learn

But they're letting us burn

'Cause they're blind
