Blinded - As I Lay Dying

Have you ever been blinded by the pain
Blinded blinded by the pain
Unwilling to see senseless
So blinded by selfishness
Only focusing on myself
And ignoring anyone else
Becoming driven by despair
Feeling trapped into a corner
Losing more and more of reality
Perceiving all the hurt only one-sidedly
Have you ever been blinded by the pain
Losing yourself inside the heartache
Losing yourself
Feeling too powerless to change
Stuck and unable to escape
Incapable to see another way
I need someone to shake me to wake me
I don't even need full clarity
Just to start the shift from blind to blurry
Have you ever been blinded by the pain
Losing yourself inside the heartache
And does that mean we cannot change
Or will we always be seen that way
Will we always be seen that way
And does that really mean we have not changed
Or does it only mean
The truth is not in how we're seen
But in the actions that we're now determined to take
Revealing the new path we chose to mend the heartache
Was it a pattern or a disastrous mistake
Is the truth in what you see or what I say
Have you ever been blinded by the pain
Losing yourself inside the heartache
And does that mean we cannot change
Or will we always be seen that way
Be seen that way
That way that way
Blinded by pain blinded by the pain
And does that really mean we have not changed
