lifeblood: songs: lyrics: fade away blind

i've been looking
long and hard
far and wide
now i know
where i need to go
is inside
as close as that seems
i'm not sure what that means anymore
no no no no
not gonna ride away
hide away
fade away blind

i used to drink from a glass
filled with tears that i cried
never could quench
my thirst for the truth i denied
as bad as it hurt
the lessons i learned were worthwhile
no no no no
not gonna ride away
hide away
fade away blind

i'm so tired of running
from things i created
being misunderstood
so underrated
there's no time to look back
to stand back
to fall
i'm at risk of losing it all

i've been looking
long and hard
far and wide
now i can see
where i've needed to be
is inside
as hard as it is
to look at myself open eyed
no no no no
i'm not gonna ride away
hide away
fade away blind
i'm not gonna ride away
hide away
fade away blind
i'm not gonna ride away
hide away
fade away blind
