Текст песни Tripping a Blind Man - Type O Negative

Tripping a Blind Man

Say the word and I’ll be healed
Open house, grease my wheels
Since my vision’s been restored
Trip me once, shame on you
Trip me twice, I’m the fool
Thought it’s hidden I’ve been cured
Patience is divine but the virtue is not mine
Turn your cheek it’s ripped off
That’s why we’re giving for
This is how you spend life
Amused by another’s strife
Makes me so sad and confused
Someone’s pain your leisure
Can’t explain sick pleasure
I’m so glad I’m not you
Patience is divine but the virtue is not mine
Turn your cheek, it’s ripped off
That’s why we’re giving for
Throwing wrenches gave a false sense of power
What started sweet will soon turn sour, oh so sour, yeah
You think it’s your place to dispense justice
Well, I’ve been sent to judge the judges
You’re damn well, so well
Goddamn love 'cause it’s breaking my heart
And if I had one wish, I’d see in the dark
Tripping a blind man
(Tripping a blind man)
So easy to do
Tripping a blind man
(Tripping a blind man)
Why can’t it be you?
You want to play God and I know you will
If that’s the case, I’ll be the Devil, oh, oh, oh yeah
Now who the fuck are you to discipline me?
Innocence condemned by the guilty, oh, oh, oh
Goddamn love 'cause it’s breaking my heart
And if I had one wish, I’d see in the dark
Tripping a blind man
(Tripping a blind man)
So easy to do
Tripping a blind man
(Tripping a blind man)
Why can’t it be you?
Losing grip on his seeing dog’s spikey collar
Panicking, the startled pet ran to the street
Sanitation truck skidding, unable to stop
Shoveled up what was left of his canine spot, canine spot
As they left, the ground turned muddy crimson
«Where's my mutt?» The victim re-questioned
Ems responded, «He has to say bye»
Teary eyed, the old man cried then died, he died
Died, died, died
Died, died, died
Patience is divine, the virtue is not mine
Turn your cheek it’s ripped off
That’s why we’re giving for
Patience is divine, the virtue is not mine
Eat your lies, peace is nice
