Blind
Gomez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're stuck with me and I can never see it changing
Do you believe this mess is getting any better?
Will you ride it out with me?
I can't see what it is I should or shouldn't be doing
Time and time again I told you
I won't be around when your phone stops ringing
And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me
I told you once or twice before but you won't listen
I tried my best but you do not seem to be hearing
I'm not surprised that we all keep telling lies
So let's just fight - I am resigned
Time and time again I told you
I won't be around when your phone stops ringing
And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me
And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me
And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me
And I can't fight
The past blinds me
And I won't mess with your woman
So don't you mess around with me
And I can't fight (Will you ride it out?)
The past blinds me (Will you ride it out?)
And I won't mess with your woman (Will you ride it out?)
So don't you mess around with me (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride it out?)




And I... (Will you ride it out?)
And I... (Will you ride?)

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of Gomez's song "Blind," the singer finds themselves stuck in a messy situation with someone they care about deeply. The opening line, "You're stuck with me and I can never see it changing," sets the tone for the frustration and hopelessness that are clearly present throughout the song. Despite their love for this person, the singer can't seem to make things better, and wonders if things will ever improve. They ask, "Do you believe this mess is getting any better? Will you ride it out with me?" It seems as though the singer is struggling with some sort of personal demons, as they sing, "I can't see what it is I should or shouldn't be doing," indicating a lack of direction or purpose.


The singer then shifts their focus to the other person involved, warning them not to mess around. They say, "And I won't mess with your woman, so don't you mess around with me," implying that the other person has been unfaithful or disloyal in some way. The singer has tried to communicate their feelings before, saying "I told you once or twice before but you won't listen," but to no avail. The repeated line, "And I can't fight, the past blinds me," suggests that the singer is haunted by past mistakes or traumas.


Overall, Gomez's "Blind" is a poignant exploration of the complexities of relationships and personal struggles. Through the use of powerful lyrics and emotive vocals, the song conveys a sense of pain, longing, and uncertainty that is hard to ignore.
