[Verse 1]
I can't quite find the right words to say
An empty page, I'll start by writing you name
From a friend to a friend
Know that I am here to defend you
When you're on the front line
You've gotta take a step back sometimes
When you wanna be high, amplified
I won't turn a blind eye
[Chorus]
Blind eye this time I won't turn away
Switch the lights I can still make out what's happening
If I visualize I can see the world overexposed
You can switch the lights
And I'd still hear the voice from the other sidе
Won't turn a blind eye
[Verse 2]
Therе must come a time when it falls apart
[?] called to restart the start
But I'm listening, I'm not innocent
Stop and love, that's the minimum
And I don't know how to say this
I'm questioning my status
It's on the line, it's on the line, yeah
Then it's the very conversation
And I hope it doesn't change us
Just tell me when
I'm listening, yeah
[Monologue]
I mean it's a a difficult topic to discuss
Because we all have privilege
Like, everybody has privilege
I mean I have privilege over the next person
And the next person has privilege over me
But I think ultimately it's just like friendship
It's like looking at the people around you
And seeing what you have over them
And it's easy to not see what you have over them - like I-I do everyday
But I can't just like keep my eyes closed
I can't just cover my eyes (Eyes, eyes, eyes)
[Chorus]
Blind eye this time I won't turn away
Switch the lights I can still make out what's happening
If I visualize I can see the world overexposed
You can switch the lights
And I'd still hear the voice from the other side
Won't turn a blind eye
