lyrics

You could say I didn't warn you
You could say you didn't know
Of the poison in the water
How the trees won't grow
Of the melting of the ice caps
And the rising of the sea
Of the species that we kill
To make more space for you and me

Why are we so blind
Why are we so blind
Why are we
Why are we so blind

The oil that fuels your engines
I know it's running out
You'll just ignore these words
Proceed without a doubt
Then the day dawns dark
You cannot find respite
From the damage that you've done
You cannot make it right

Why are we so blind
Why are we so blind
Why are we
Why are we so blind

You know the wisdom's out there
To free us from this coil
But we undercut the funding
To maintain slavery to oil

Now when we lose it all
There's nothing left to save
You do not learn from your mistakes
Slowly dig our grave
So I am Cassandra
With a glass rose in my hand
Trying to stop the fall
Of this experiment called man

Why are we so blind
Why are we so blind
Why are we
Why are we so blind

Forcefully heavy riffs and a healthy dose of groove combine with soaring soprano vocals to create what Metal Bite calls “[P]ure metal magic." ... more
