Darkness of the Blind

(*Sniff* If you don't like sad songs, just skip this one. I have no idea what made me write it. Also, it's another old one, so it's not as well written as some of my other songs, IMHO.)

REFRAIN:

Funny thing is, I've got no memory of that,

And you keep bringing it back;

Images keep flashing in my mind,

Of things that you claim I left behind.

And I wish that it was true,

'Cause I think I'm in love with you,

But when I search all that I find

Is the darkness of the blind.

I woke up in a hospital bed,

And on my lap, there lay your head.

In your eyes I spotted tears;

Enough to last a thousand years.

My finger wore a golden band,

And I noticed another on your hand.

REFRAIN

They talk to me like a little kid;

Their eyes speak of things their words keep hid.

They tell me that I was in the car,

When a drunkard drove a little too far.

They give me drugs to kill the pain,

But I still feel the pain of this fog in my brain.

REFRAIN

You show me pictures of our stranger child;

Your eyes are those of a man gone wild.

I say I'm sorry I can't help you,

But I don't remember if what you say is true.*

You look so sad as you walk away...

All because of someone who shouldn't have driven that day.

REFRAIN

* But I can't remember what you want me to?
