Blindsided

Bon Iver · For Emma, Forever Ago [2008]

Bike down, down to the downtown

Down to the lockdown...

Boards, nails lie around



I crouch like a crow

Contrasting the snow

For the agony I'd rather know



'Cause blinded

I am blindsided



Peek in

Into the peer in

I'm not really like this

I'm probably plightless



I come through the window

I'm crippled and slow

For the agony I'd rather know



'Cause blinded

I am blindsided



Would you really rush out?

Would you really rush out for me now?

Ooh, for me now



Taut line

Down to the shoreline

The end of a blood line

The moon is a cold light



There's a pull to the flow

My feet melt the snow

For the irony I'd rather know



'Cause blinded

I was blindsided

Blinded

I was blindsided

Blinded

I was blindsided
