Blind Man, Deaf Boy

The roof caved in
And the walls crumbled
And their I stood exposed
Clutching my chest in fear
How'd I end up here

Bad decisions one right after the other
Moved like waves pulled by the moon
Like a puppet who's tugged on by a string
Like water tumbling down string
I was lost

Blind man deaf boy
And the lover of me
And where did it lead to
I fought air as I was drowning
In that rushing stream
As the water poured over me

Off the bridge I threw my heart
As if it didn't matter
I walked the edge so fearlessly
Blindfolded by my lustful eyes
Deafened by a string of lies

But You saw me there
In my same condition
And Your eyes held me in Your stare
You gazed into my empty soul
Spoke the words that burned a hole
In my heart

Blind man deaf boy
Now see and hear
Did you think that I'd not find you
Don't you know that I'm the lover of souls
And I came to be near
From this very earth I made you

Some of us like sheep have gone astray
Some of us like fools live for today
And then it's gone and we're left with nothing
We fight to hold it all inside our hands
Somehow we think we'll understand
What no eye has ever seen and no mind comprehended

Blind man deaf boy
And the lover of me
And where did it lead to

Blind man deaf boy
Now hear and see
Did you think that I'd not find you
Blind man deaf boy
