Blind - Trijntje Oosterhuis

Verse 1

Something deep inside I can’t control

Time will tell is all they say

Woke up at 9 am, I can’t recall

The things we said the other day

You look into my eyes instinctively

I’m keeping thoughts you’ll never see

A burden on my mind

I’ve never known that part of me

Chorus

Blind, to everything I feel

Unable to reveal

Just moving on

With eyes wide shut

and pain in my heart

Blind, to all that I can be

It’s locked inside of me

No one outside

Can see the truth inside of me

Verse2

I run ahead of time, and find myself

In places that I’ve never been

Two blocks down the road I hate myself

Fall into the same routine

Thinking how much more my life could be

But then again another day

Words left me behind

Forgot all I meant to say

Chorus

Blind, to everything I feel

Unable to reveal

Just moving on

With eyes wide shut

and pain in my heart

Blind, to all that I can be

It’s locked inside of me

No one outside

Will see the truth inside of me

Bridge

Sooner or later I must face reality

No longer hiding cause I don’t wanna be

Chorus

Blind to everything you feel

Unable to reveal

Just moving on

With eyes wide shut and pain in your heart

Blind to everything you need

And all that we could be

But I hope some day

You’ll see the truth inside of me

Inside of me
