Tried so hard just to live and forget and forgive

And to live by their rules

And to try to fit in I would do anything

Like a poor blinded fool

"You must do what they say and not question the way

"That was chosen for you"

I thought that was the way that life had to be

Until I found out the truth

Now I open my eyes

It's just like I was blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

Now they think I don't see, poor derision on me

With their hypocrisy

Cynical egotist, government hypnotist

Too small minded to see

And the truth is so bright like a blinding light

My true path I could find

Theories incomplete sceptics I must defeat

For my own peace of mind

Now I open my eyes

It's just like I was blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

(I was blind to the truth)

You think you got freedom now

That's how they hold you down

You think you got freedom now

That's how they hold you down, down

You think you got freedom now

That's how they hold you down

You think you got freedom now

That's how they hold you

Tried so hard just to live and forget and forgive

And to live by their rules

"You must do what they say not question the way

"That was chosen for you"

I thought that was the way that life had to be

Until I found out the truth

Now I open my eyes

It's just like I was blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

(I was blind to the truth)

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

In the land of the blind

(I was blind to the truth)
