Blinded
Muph & Plutonic Lyrics

When you can't see what's coming
When you are unaware of what is going to happen next

But you sure you hear something
But you have a feeling that something is going to happen

First reaction, start running
Reacting quickly by running away from the situation

Gunning down the hill
Running quickly downhill

Til the pace catches up, laces run a muck
Until you catch up with the pace, and your shoelaces become untied

Soon enough face tastes of blood spill
Eventually getting hurt and tasting your own blood

Drill drive and dentistry
Behind the scenes actions and manipulation

Out spoken speaks up at assembly
Someone speaking up in front of a group of people

Couldn't keep the words from drawing this destiny
Unable to prevent words from leading to an unfortunate outcome

Irrational is international
Irrational behavior is widespread

And it travels with your visa form of identity
It even follows you when you travel overseas

Dramatic overacted song and dance
Exaggerated response to something

Shakes your leisurely stroll, got your feet off balance
Interrupts a relaxed and easygoing demeanor

Now you jumping up and down
Now acting excited and energetic

A rock and roll snare drum runs vibrations
A loud and intense sound creates a feeling of excitement

Interlacing with your 2006 digital console
Combining with technology from the past

Control on the whole is only half there
The situation is only partially under control

Blindfolded, unaware
Not knowing what is going on

Of what the thin air had to offer
Not realizing the opportunities that were available

Not the Mocha that will wake you up
Not the simple solution to the problem

Like right off your guts over the edge like your time is up
Feeling as if something bad is about to happen

Fired up on the cup, the brushes up your confidence
Feeling more confident and energized

Start throwing around cue cards of all your accomplishments
Boasting about all the things you have achieved

Common sense sinks to the bottom of honest dominance
Doing what is necessary to be successful, even if it compromises one's morals

Now the arse hole within this claim in prominence
Now the least likable person becomes the most important

Wake up in the morning wondering where the hell my wallet went
Waking up to find that something of value is missing

When you think you know it all
When you believe that you have all the answers

Stubborn thick skin splinters can't penetrate
Refusing to listen to other opinions or ideas

Let em make covering, smothering
Letting others suffocate you with their ideas

Room for breathe, glad wrap surrounding the chest
Not feeling comfortable or able to breathe in a situation

Poke holes through it, never said sorry now you blew it
Making things worse by refusing to apologize

Left lonely in pain, holding the cellophane pane
Feeling alone and hurt, with no way out

And look through it, left em in the dark
Not providing clarity or insight

Now you're the one who looks stupid
Now you appear foolish

Look, excuses don't change the fact you lack the ability to let go
Excuses don't change the fact that you can't move on from a situation

You ain't that considerate, we're X absorbing the oblivious
Not being thoughtful of others, while also ignoring things that are obvious

Walking past cries of help, felt like happy music
Ignoring others' distress, as if it were not serious

The one way conversations with a - dead end
Talking to someone who isn't listening or incapable of responding

Muted, tutored by the best in their field
Being unable to speak up or being suppressed by the most knowledgeable

Everybody you knew, knew how to steal attention
Everyone around you knows how to draw attention to themselves

Thieving their name to get a mention
Using someone else's reputation to get noticed

But you're blinded by the fact that you do the same thing
Unaware that you are also guilty of seeking attention in the same way

The lessons etched in your subconscious
Lessons learned that have become part of your thought process

A certain fondness, that goes beyond just being proud of who you are
A deep appreciation that extends further than just feeling proud of oneself

A super star ego, we've all seen those
An egotistical attitude that is common among successful people

By the beauty and the beat that her cheeks make when they speak to me
Distracted by the attractive appearance of someone

Back turned, gaining distance, I feel less free
Being ignored or rejected creates a feeling of confinement

She's really what I want, becoming something that I fiend
Focusing attention on what is desired, even if it is detrimental

Like something of a dream, stunning high beam stays
Something that is desired greatly and holds attention

Forgetting what the hell I was doing
Losing focus on the task at hand

Sometimes confusion, inter-fuses with what we see
Sometimes confusion is created from what we can observe

We've all had a time when the mind's been blinded
It is common to experience a moment of confusion or distraction

And now you see
And now you understand the truth behind these situations
