Blinded By The Truth - Laurence Fox

You say I’m made in wanton disarray

You tell me I’m awake when I’m not

I am lost for words

And as I wait for the morsels

Drifting down from your finest golden plate

I am lost, I am lost for words

There is a world it’s

Growing out of the shadows

Don’t be lost, don’t be lost for words

I didn’t ask you to save me, to change me

Beguile me or in time to betray me

For all of the things you’ve learned

Show me the one who gave you the truth

I’ll show you a man, just a man standing before you

Are they the words that are helping to raise your heart again

Or is it the love that you needed was always so much nearer than before

We were blinded by the truth

In different times, the lost and hopeful mind

Found meaning in the skies and sanction down below

But now the world is changing

The lights are always on, the lights are always on

There is a world it’s growing out of the shadows

Don’t be lost, don’t be lost for words

I didn’t ask you to save me, to change me

Beguile me or in time to betray me

For all of the things you’ve learned

Show me the one who gave you the truth

I’ll show you a man, just a man standing before you

Are they the words that are helping to raise your heart again

Or is it the love that you needed was always so much nearer than before

We were blinded by the truth

I will not raise you with words

Vain glory displays are the blight of our age

For I must raise you with love

And help you to dream the meaning of your life

Show me the one who gave you the truth

I’ll show you a man, just a man standing before you

Are they the words that are helping to raise your heart again

Or is it the love that you needed was always so much nearer than before

We were blinded by the truth
