lyrics

Totally Blind

I told you a story once about a tree
About the moon and stars as well
I told you things about the brain
About the dreams and conscious, too.

Ch: How can you be so totally blind?
How can you be so totally blind?
You never ask questions, you are just blind.
How can you be so totally blind?

I saw things and love affairs
Saw the wilderness and didn’t care
I saw all kinds of persons, too
But I don’t remember seeing you.

Ch: How can you be so totally blind?
How can you be so totally blind?
You never open your eyes, you are just blind.
How can you be so totally blind?

I was running from town to town
Well you can say, I came around.
But have I seen, what I came to find?
Or was I running while being blind?

Ch: How can you be so totally blind?
How can you be so totally blind?
You never are curious, you are just blind.
How can you be so totally blind?

And in the streets of a little village
With wind and rain and fainting lights
There was this dog that told me “Son,
You never arrive but you always run!”

Ch: How can you be so totally blind?
How can you be so totally blind?
You never wanna know, you are just blind.
How can you be so totally blind?

There was this night and a lot of playing
So many words, without any saying.
The ashamed full moon seeing it all,
Someone had to be hurt and someone to fall.

Ch: How can you be so totally blind?
How can you be so totally blind?
You don’t understand, you are just blind.
How can you be so totally blind?
