Blind Leading The Blind

When the chips are down

And you're blinded on your feet

You're standing up and walking

But you know you are dead meat

The sky is busting

And it's near the break of day

And you're running out options

And running out of place

The leaves are cracking

Withered on the trees

I beg you darling

Won't you say a prayer for me

I need your benediction

'Cause I'm a soul in need

And I can't sit down much lower

'Cause I'm on my knees

Like the blind leading the blind

After the wine, the tears they are gushing

Oh, like the blind leading the blind

Time after time, you won't let the love in, yeah

You are the sharpest knife

You are the finest blade

You are the shining sun

Everybody's in your shade

So funny to you

Dripping honey from your tongue

But you never know what's waiting for you

When the day is done

There is a sadness grinding in your bones

A twisted trap down, you're forced to go

You need the hand of friendship to steady up your heart

So hang on to me closely and I'll show you down the path

Like the blind leading the blind

Asking me why you won't let the love in?

Oh, like the blind leading the blind

Only to find your feelings are nothing, nothing, yeah

Ooh, like the blind leading the blind

After the wine, oh, your tears they are gushing, oh

Just like the blind leading the blind

Time after time, you won't let the love in, ooh, ooh

Just like the blind leading the blind

Leading the blind

Oh, yeah, oh, come on

Just like the blind leading the blind
