lyrics
So much determination but no motivation,
Letting the blind run blind,
Hopeless services breed contempt,
Keeping us safely strapped to our seats,
Where, do we go now?
Where, are we supposed to be!
Where, do we go now?
Where, are we supposed to be!
How much longer is this going to take!
The blind, just lead the blind,
And we’re destined to all fall right to our knees,
The blind, just lead the blind,
Fall right back where we belong,
The blind, just lead the blind,
And we’re destined to all fall right to our knees,
The blind, just lead the blind,
Fall right back where we belong.
Do you wanna scream…
Do you wanna scream…
Do you wanna scream!!!
AWWW SCREAMMMMM!!
Screaammm!
Screaaaaammmm!
Keep me up close
where you will always see me,
Know at all times
that you have me in your grasp,
I thought I knew you
But you only were a lie,
Just like everything
I ever told myself!
I am right back where I was,
When I first started my own damnation,
Destined to repeat the hells of the years,
Cause I’m so week, I can’t call it off!
