Shield Your Eyes

[Verse 1]

There was a sun once

It lit the whole damn sky

It kept everything

Everything alive

And there was a man once

He looked it straight in the eye

He saw everything

Everything

He went blind

[Chorus]

The truth burns bright

There's too much there sometimes

The sun it shows, the sun it blinds

Best to keep your eyes

Stare at the sidewalk lines

Let lies lie, don't let them shine

...let them shine, don't let them shine

[Verse 2]

The blind man staggers

And he grabs at his eyes

He can't do anything

Everything is a lie

Now he sits around

And he stares at the walls

He can't do anything

Anything at all

[Chorus]

The truth burns bright

There's too much there sometimes

The sun it shows, the sun it blinds

Best to keep your eyes

Stare at the sidewalk lines

Let lies lie, don't let them shine

...let them shine, don't let them shine

Shield your eyes from all this misery

Don't belong, don't belong
