Blind To The Truth by Dan Fogelberg

Blind To The Truth Lyrics

edit | print 
In the overcrowded cities where the nights are bright as day
You spend your weekly paycheck and turn your eyes away
From the crisis weve created with our self-indulgent ways
Living like theres no tomorrow, well that just might be the case

Now theyre tearing down the forests and the jungles of brazil
Without a second thought about the species that they kill
But extinction is forever and still the forests fall
And push it ever closer to extinction for us all

But youre so blind to the truth, blind to the truth
And you cant see nothing
Cause youre so blind to the truth, blind to the truth
And the judgment day is coming

Now the politicians bicker on the early evening news
Pledging their allegiance to whoever they can use
The corporate bosses snicker as they watch the profits soar
They dont care what they make next month just as long as it is more

They take our farms and marshlands, drive nature to the wall
Just so they can build another goddamn shopping mall
And it doesnt seem to matter if they cannot see the stars
As long as they can keep on building obsolescent cars

Theyre so blind to the truth, blind to the truth
No they cant see nothing
Theyre so blind to the truth, blind to the truth
But the judgment day is coming

Now you cannot drink the water and you cannot breathe the air
The sky is ripping open and you still dont seem to care
The soil is tired and toxic and unable to provide
The clock is running out and there is nowhere left to hide

Now theres laws that we must live by and theyre not the laws of man
Cant you see the shadow that moves across this land
The future is upon us and theres so much we must do
And you know I cant ignore it and my friend neither can you

Unless youre blind to the truth, blind to the truth
And you cant see nothing
Youre so blind to the truth, blind to the truth
But the judgment day is coming
Love this song? Put this box on your blog!
