Blindly 06:10
If you watch them over time you might find out some things If you study closely for a little while you might find out things you didn't see before It doesn't take a genius to see the things happening here you, I know you can't be so blind you don't need a crystal ball to see it all it's right here in front of your eyes it's right here oh, kinda makes me sad thinking about the way things are around here oh, in here it kinda makes me sad the way that they've got it twisted up in here oh, wow oh, don't you know don't you know how they've told you these things from the beginning there, that's why you don't see what's happening in here in our hearts in her heart that's why you don't see how your heart how your heart is so hard If you just wanna know what's going on look into yourself a little while a little while tell me who you are

Domestic 04:03
I'm living in your arms and in your mind I said I don't and I know my own is here we found it here we found it I know it's here went out of town hold your hand out forever and I seem to know you better I just find it a little hard to understand why you come in here why you come in here oh it's in your home wear something nice tonight he said oh, she's giving it all so right tonight they just find it hard to unwind sometimes they just find it hard to let lie sometimes and it's a long way always all out of light, light it's over like a line your light's over like a line

Unaware 05:39
you told her so many things you told her all the things that she wanted to know just the words that worked so you got your hands into her you got so deep into her you saw things you didn't want to know you found out some things in yourself you didn't want to know in her you ran around you ran around looking for something else you never saw what was sitting right there you were unaware so, so unaware of her each time you tried to figure out why each time you tried I... I was so blind
