Blinding Lights
Give me the answers
Give me the questions, too
Give me the rote instructions of the prophets
So I'll know what to do
Give us direction
Give us our daily bread
Deliver the spoils of faith and dedication
Guilt and transubstantiation
I'll let you go blind
To show you the light
I'll send you a light
To part wrong from right
Teach me the business
Show me the bottom line
School me in blackmail and misinformation
To keep the sheep in line
Make my decisions
Take away all control
Make me the perfect soldier:
Full of hatred, ignorant and motivated
I'll let you go blind
To show you the light
I'll set you alight
To part wrong from right
Please don't let me fade away
I can barely see
These Blinding Lights
Insist that the blindness
Is better than sight
To a burning man
These Blinding Lights
Are all I can point to
All I can cling to
To make things right
But can I be sure
That living in darkness
Is bringing me closer
To the light
They'll make us go blind
To show us the light
They'll burn us alive
To part wrong from right
Give me the questions, too
Give me the rote instructions of the prophets
So I'll know what to do
Give us direction
Give us our daily bread
Deliver the spoils of faith and dedication
Guilt and transubstantiation
I'll let you go blind
To show you the light
I'll send you a light
To part wrong from right
Teach me the business
Show me the bottom line
School me in blackmail and misinformation
To keep the sheep in line
Make my decisions
Take away all control
Make me the perfect soldier:
Full of hatred, ignorant and motivated
I'll let you go blind
To show you the light
I'll set you alight
To part wrong from right
Please don't let me fade away
I can barely see
These Blinding Lights
Insist that the blindness
Is better than sight
To a burning man
These Blinding Lights
Are all I can point to
All I can cling to
To make things right
But can I be sure
That living in darkness
Is bringing me closer
To the light
They'll make us go blind
To show us the light
They'll burn us alive
To part wrong from right
