Blind Sighted

If you're thinking that you know me
 I would like to see you show me
 There is more than meets the eyes
 So for you I have a surprise
 You might just think looking at us
 Responsibility does not surround us
 But you can't see into the past
 Don't let judgment go that fast
 Look into our hearts
 Appreciation for the arts
 Props are given to Sinatra
 Jazz and blues and even opera
 Education of importance
 Don't believe in ignorance
 Still there's more than meets the eyes
 So for you I have a surprise
 Those that think they know it all
 I find they're never on the ball
 Too shallow to know what they lack
 In depth people they attack
 Yes we care, maybe you don't
 And we have found opinions won't
 Keep us into others' lies
 To make us too timid or shy
 We have loved and lost and do fear
 Tragedies that could ensue here
 No one wants to be so lonely
 Yes we want that one and only
 Stop looking and she will appear
 That is what they say and I hear
 Still there's much more going on
 Too much to put into this song
 You don't see
 That part of me
 Now you've heard us rant and rave
 About the way humans behave
 This perception makes us fit
 Into a world of hypocrites
 It's good to hate what you've become
 It shows that you don't think as one
 Minds working in conjunction
 They're open to observation
 We all can be just slightly blind
 The key is to open your mind
 Clear the cobwebs and you will find
 A rational to hide behind
 The fears that we put behind walls
 Protects us from the ego falls
 So self-esteem it can build up
 Causing a mind that won't shut up
 You don't see
 That part of me
