Hear me, speaking...Asking why I even bother
Tell me, how you....Live from day to day

Take your time and look around
Is this utopia you've found

Sick of all of this
The suffering and we just carry on
Isn't it time we care and lose the hate
Understand our fears

But we do all that we can
Justify the means to an end
Sorry you must excuse me
I've painted my own Mona Lisa
She's fixed everything
Now I'm spoiled beyond my wildest dreams

Blind Faith we have in you....Invisible
Which direction do we choose....Predictable

Take the streets, the beaten path
Our system works for whom I ask
Yeah I have it all....The bigger house
An iron fence to keep you out

When did we all let you down
So come Messiah show us how how
Our human spirit drowns...Don't think you hear me now
No sign of you around...What is it you hope to see

Blind Faith we have in you....Invisible
Which direction do we choose...Predictable
Give us something we can use...Desirable
Cause you've done all you can do....Regrettable

And still life pushes on....With or without you
We've got to carry on....Our will, will guide us to
A place where we belong....Know there lies the truth
I am the believer who gives purpose on to you

I don't think we let you down
So come Messiah show us how how
Throw us a pure lifeline....I hope that you hear me
Too proud to be around....There's more to us than we see now

Blind Faith we have in you....Invisible
Which direction do we choose...Predictable
Self ignorance, abuse....Desirable
Cause you've done all you can do...Incredible
