Blind(Expanded Edition)

The Icicle Works Blind(Expanded Edition) Lyrics
1.Intro(remastered)


2.Shit Creek(remastered)

When times are good, when times are bad
Let my verse be my epitaph
I can't slow down, I can't get straight
Kind woman, please, don't make me wait
Kind woman, please, don't make me wait

I'm all undone, I'm all uptight
Sweet Jesus, won't you treat me right?
I wear my home, I eat my pay
I'm dancing on my dying day
I'm dancing on my dying day, yeah


3.High Time(remastered)


4.Little Girl Lost(remastered)

I don't know why it is you scare me
I don't know why I feel afraid
When you're around I feel uncertain
And lose sight of the plans I made

You've got a nerve to be demanding
When you had nothing to begin
And though you say your door is never
open to the world
I envy those who you let in

Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Lost little girl

The boys in town could do without you
Your mother's not sure who you are
And in the darkness I will hold you
to your word
The only sound a passing car

Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Lost little girl

Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Lost little girl

Little girl

When you run for shelter
You don't feel the rain
You don't appreciate the good things
When they are around you

I believe today may be
The first time I've
Regarded you
with something more
Than passing admiration.

Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Little girl lost
Lost little girl


5.Starry Blue-Eyed Wonder(remastered)

What makes you think the girl will love you?
Is the best thing that you've seen?
Where's the sense in running when your spirit doesn't leave your
home
You're acting like a two-bit visionary

Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder

What makes you think the world is waiting?
What makes you think it's there for you?
Where's the sense in stealing when you know you'll win tomorrow
wild?
You're doing things the way you used to do

Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder

Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
I am on my way
I am on my wing
I am on my way
Get out of my way
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder
Starry, blue-eyed wonder


6.One True Love(remastered)


7.Blind(remastered)

Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?

There's a dead girl by the roadside
There's a black man on the ground
Tarred and feathered by the wayside
Words of protest just rebound

Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?

There's a dealer on the corner
There's a junkie on the street
There's an actor in the White House
The high rise towers sink like vultures waiting

Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?

Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see?

Is there method in the madness?
Is the reason to believe?
Will the innocent find the freedom?
It's harder to come clean than it is to deceive, yeah

Am I so blind I cannot see?
Am I so blind I cannot see? I cannot see, yeah
Am I so blind I cannot see? I cannot see, I cannot see
Am I so blind I cannot see? I cannot see, yeah, sweet Jesus
Am I so blind I cannot see? I cannot see, yeah

9.What Do You Want Me To Do?(remastered)


10.Stood Before Saint Peter(remastered)

In the moment of my madness
In the presence of my shame
I stood before St. Peter
Naked and unnamed

Praying the fell with genius
Win the blue silk hoe
Across the street where angels stood
In colors bright and bold

He said, 'Son, before I judge you
I have to make this clear
Your heartfelt prayers for Heaven on Earth
Don't come to much up here'

'Cause you still kill your brother
And watch your children die
Two thousand years ain't changed your ways
And still you wonder why

The east side and the west side
With great distance in between
Are parted by false values
And a blindness seldom seen

There's murder in the city street
Bloodshed in the fields
You take your life so lightly
Can you imagine how Jesus feels?

As I climbed the staircase
My suitcase in my hand
The stars around me shone like jewels
On a vast and promised land

We never claimed perfection
It's hard enough to learn
Heaven's doors are open wide
The fires of Hell still burn


11.The Kiss Off(remastered)

She didn't want to know me
She didn't want to see me
She didn't want to take me
She didn't want to free me

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off
(She gave me a kiss off)

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off
(She gave me a kiss off)

She didn't want to hold me
She didn't want to scold me
She didn't want to call me
She didn't want to bore me

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off
(She gave me a kiss off)

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off
(She gave me a kiss off)

Had to do it all over
When I saw her in the morning light
Yes, I did

Mm, yeah

She didn't want to fool me
She didn't want to school me
She didn't want to thrill me
(Thrill me, thrill me)
She didn't want to bill me

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off
(She gave me a kiss off)

She gave me a kiss off
She gave me a kiss off

Want to do it all over

She gave me a kiss off

Gave me a kiss off, kiss off
Gave me a kiss off, kiss off
Oo, yeah

Gave me a kiss off
Gave me a kiss off
Yeah, gave me a kiss off


12.Here Comes Trouble(remastered)

Yesterday, I woke up
To a storm inside my room
Rain fell from my ceiling
To a Robert Johnson tune
I knew my days of lazy haze
Had left me far behind
You credited it to my life
And left your baggage in my mind

If I find myself in sweet content
Is your heart full of song or rent?

Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
God alone
Knows what I'm thinking of
Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
Of love
Of love

It picks you up and thrills you
'Til you don't know where you are
You bounce along the high street
And your head is full of stars
Your friends start to ignore you
They don't answer when you call
They won't intrude your precious time
It's lonely when you fall

But there's magic in your lover's smile
With your caution for a while

Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
God alone
Knows what I'm thinking of
Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
God alone
Knows what I'm thinking of
Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
Here comes trouble
In the shape of love
Of love
Of love


13.Walk A While With Me(remastered)

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
See the things I see
Be the things I need
Walk a while with me

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
You know you're not really free
You're just pretending to be
So walk a while with me

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
And if you're willing to dream
And find out what we could be
Walk a while with me

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
And if you're willing to dream
And find out what we could be
You'll walk a while with me
Walk a while with me

Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
Walk a while with me
