Lyrics
As far as a blind man sees
Expressing limited perception, akin to a blind person's view.
As distant and far from my beliefs
Describing a distance from personal beliefs.
A gun in hand
Suggesting a presence of danger with a gun in hand.
And freedom's banned
Highlighting the absence of freedom.
Fear is all around
Conveying a pervasive sense of fear in the surroundings.
You keep repeat your sacred words
Noting the repetition of sacred words despite adverse conditions.
Where freedom is killed with ease
Observing the easy destruction of freedom.
Save me from your thoughts and prayers
Pleading to be spared from well-intentioned but ineffective gestures.
Life wont matter until it ends
Stating that the value of life is only realized at its end.
Until it ends
Reiterating the transient nature of life.
One tells me that ignorance is bliss
Acknowledging the idea that ignorance can bring contentment.
Another one cares and make a change
Recognizing the importance of caring individuals who instigate change.
A burning land, on sacred ground
Describing a land in turmoil, possibly symbolizing societal unrest.
Tumbleweed is all we found
Highlighting the desolation with a metaphorical tumbleweed.
You keep repeat the history
Pointing out the repetition of historical mistakes.
The things that shouldn't be
Noting the persistence of undesirable situations.
Save me from your thoughts and prayers
Repeating the plea to be saved from ineffective gestures.
Life wont matter until it ends
Reiterating that life's significance is realized only at its conclusion.
Until it ends
Emphasizing the transient nature of life once again.
