Hurts - Blind Lyrics

Since the day I left you I hear your voice in every sound.
Since the day I left you I see your face in every crowd.
It won't go away

But every time I feel you near
I close my eyes and turn to stone.
Cause now the only thing I fear
Is seeing you're better off alone. Yeah.

Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind.

With the weight of the world upon me I can't hold my head up high.
So if you see me on the street turn away or walk on by.

Cause after the beauty we've destroyed
I'm cascading through the void,
I know in time my heart will mend.
I don't care if I never see you again. Yeah.

Cut out my eyes and leave me blind
Cut out my eyes and leave me blind.

Girl, I told you
After all we've been through
I don't wanna be by myself.
Girl, I told you
That it would tear me in two
If I see you with someone else.

Cut out my eyes. And leave me blind.
Cut out my eyes. And leave me blind.
Cut out my eyes. And leave me blind.
