Just As Blind
Music & lyrics © 2012 Jake Westerbeck. All rights reserved.
This is the day that I say goodbye,
To a town of hopes and dreams that have seemed to pass me by.
And this is the day that I walk away,
From everything I love so I can survive for another day
Because it will eat you alive
Everything they told me
Everything they said was a lie
This is not the place for me when I am risking my life
Everything they showed me
And everything I found on my own
Was not enough to keep me there
So I'm packing up my things so I can start
Heading home.
This is the time in your life to see
That everything you want is not what you need
And these are the things that I say to you
"Just follow your heart and make your own dreams come true,
Because they can't take them away from you"
You said that it'd be different and I should give it a try
But its all just the same
And everyone here is just as blind.
