I'd Rather Go Blind
Love's Painful Symphony: Yearning to Escape the Shadows
Lyrics
I suppose I should get over this
I feel like I should move past this situation
I'm not the first and not the last
I'm not the first or last person to experience this
To ever wake up with a hurt inside
Waking up with emotional pain is not uncommon
But it just won't go away
The hurt I'm feeling doesn't seem to diminish
It's getting worse now every day
The pain is intensifying with time
And I can't find a hole that's big enough for me to crawl and hide
I can't find a way to escape or hide from it
I'd rather go blind
I'd rather lose my sight
Yeah, I'd rather go blind
I'd prefer to be blind
Than see you with another guy
Prefer being blind than witnessing you with another person
You made a special tape for me
You made a compilation of songs for me
With songs from all your favourite CDs
Songs from your favorite CDs were included
I put it on today then I had to turn it off
Listening to the tape today was difficult, had to stop
From Junior Brown to Dr. Dre
The tape included various artists like Junior Brown and Dr. Dre
And you am I along the way
These songs reminded me of our relationship
The music only made me want to get inside your touch
The music made me long for physical closeness with you
I'd rather go blind
I'd rather be blind
Yeah, I'd rather go blind, yeah
Prefer to lose vision than witness your involvement with someone else
I'd rather go blind
I'd choose blindness
Than see you with another guy
Prefer blindness over seeing you with another person
With another guy
Reinforces the sentiment of not wanting to witness you with someone else
I'd rather die
I'd prefer death than seeing you with another person
Never has to see you with another guy
I hope to never witness you with another person
You robbed me of my peace of mind
You disturbed my peace of mind
You stole the taste out of the wine
You ruined the pleasant experiences
You left with nothing but you took it all
You took away everything from me
Now if you sleep with someone else
If you're intimate with someone else
I just hope it's with another girl
I hope it's with a different gender
You know I can't compete with that at all
I can't compete with that situation
I'd rather go blind
I'd rather lose my sight
I'd rather go blind
Prefer to be blind
I think I'm going blind
Feeling like I'm losing my sight metaphorically
Yeah, I'd rather go blind
I'd rather lose my sight
Than see you with another guy
Prefer blindness over witnessing you with someone else
