Dan Fogelberg - Blind To The Truth Lyrics
In the overcrowded cities where the nights are bright as dayYou spend your weekly paycheck and turn your eyes awayFrom the crisis weve created with our self-indulgent waysLiving like theres no tomorrow, well that just might be the caseNow theyre tearing down the forests and the jungles of brazilWithout a second thought about the species that they killBut extinction is forever and still the forests fallAnd push it ever closer to extinction for us allBut youre so blind to the truth, blind to the truthAnd you cant see nothingCause youre so blind to the truth, blind to the truthAnd the judgment day is comingNow the politicians bicker on the early evening newsPledging their allegiance to whoever they can useThe corporate bosses snicker as they watch the profits soarThey dont care what they make next month just as long as it is moreThey take our farms and marshlands, drive nature to the wallJust so they can build another goddamn shopping mallAnd it doesnt seem to matter if they cannot see the starsAs long as they can keep on building obsolescent carsTheyre so blind to the truth, blind to the truthNo they cant see nothingTheyre so blind to the truth, blind to the truthBut the judgment day is comingNow you cannot drink the water and you cannot breathe the airThe sky is ripping open and you still dont seem to careThe soil is tired and toxic and unable to provideThe clock is running out and there is nowhere left to hideNow theres laws that we must live by and theyre not the laws of manCant you see the shadow that moves across this landThe future is upon us and theres so much we must doAnd you know I cant ignore it and my friend neither can youUnless youre blind to the truth, blind to the truthAnd you cant see nothingYoure so blind to the truth, blind to the truthBut the judgment day is coming
