about

The track is about how blind we have become to the struggles and treatment of those who are different than us, those who struggle through pain to survive, those who flee their homes to try and make a better life, those who hide behind lies for fear of persecution and all others whom are less fortunate. It is a disease that infects all parts of the world and we need to open our eyes and see!

lyrics

I don't know why
We just stand by
And let them trouble you
We know it's true
As time goes by
We believe the lie
That there's nothing we can do
But that's not true

We close or eyes to reality
And live inside our fantasy
But out there is so much pain and hate
So many looking to escape

All the brutality
The tragedy
And agony
Seeking a little amnesty
From malady
And treachery
But oh the blind man
Can't see
What he's done to feed
The disease

To save their lives
We must sacrifice
A little of ourselves
We know it's true
No compromise
Everyone survives
We all pull through
But that's not true

Cause we close our eyes to reality
And live our lives happy and carefree
We ignore all the pain and the hate
And barricade those who try to escape

All the brutality
The tragedy
And agony
Seeking a little amnesty
From malady
And treachery
But oh the blind man
Can't see
What he's done to feed
The disease

What a nightmare this could be
If it wasn't reality
We know life isn't a game
How we live it is insane

Cause we close our eyes to reality
And live inside our fantasy
We ignore all the pain and the hate
And barricade those who try to escape

All the brutality
The tragedy
And agony
Seeking a little amnesty
From malady
And treachery
But oh the blind man
Can't see
What he's done to feed
The disease
