Just Going Blind Vigilantes of Love

[Verse 1]
Friends say my countenance, or what amounts to it, is a shroud of ash and brown
Turning clay into gold can sometimes get you down
I suppose there are benefits in being retarded
At least your life's a string of moments unguarded

[Chorus]
Lawyer says my case is poor
And the doctor says there is no cure
For this war in my mind
And I can't feel remorse or hear the cry
Is the sun fading? Is the light dying?
Or am I just going
Or am I just going
Or am I just going blind?

[Verse 2]
I have worn it like a badge, I stitched it across my chest for everyone to see
And I have made it a major tenet in my theology
In the 20th century, there's no reason or rhyme
We've become the greatest experts at simply killing time

[Chorus]
Lawyer says my case is poor
And the doctor says there is no cure
For this war in my mind
And I can't feel remorse or hear the cry
Is the sun fading? Is the light dying?
Or am I just going
Or am I just going
Or am I just going blind?
Oh!
