Lyrics

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king
The masses buy the lie, and swallow everything
But if ever entered such a man with eyes of a pair
Would he rule the land as new found king?
Or would he be..
Hit by a thousand stones
Backed by two thousand angry fists
Hit by flying, blind arrows
In the mind of a child, the line's thin between right and wrong
But give it time, I'm sure things will change before long
But if ever a child grows up strong, with a mind of his own
Will he sing out loud the blind man's song?
Or will he be..
Hit by a thousand stones
Backed by two thousand angry fists
Hit by flying, blind arrows
For your sake, I'll endure this
Now I lay these broken arrows at your feet
Take them from me, see this blind man on his knees
In the land of the blind, I can't seem to find my place
For so long I've closed my eyes
And hoped no one feels the tears on my face
But if ever I arrive one day, with throat dry as sand
Will you greet me with a warm embrace?
Or will I be..
Hit by a thousand stones
Backed by two thousand angry fists
Hit by flying, blind arrows
For your name, I'll endure this
