[Intro: Tim Lambesis]

Have you ever been blinded by the pain?

Blinded, blinded by the pain

[Verse 1: Tim Lambesis]

Unwilling to see, senseless

So blinded by selfishness

Only focusing on myself

And ignoring anyone else

Becoming driven by despair

Feeling trapped into a corner

Losing more and more of reality

Perceiving all the hurt only one-sidedly

[Chorus 1: Josh Gilbert, Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]

Have you ever been blinded by the pain?

Losing yourself inside the heartache

[Verse 2: Tim Lambesis]

Losing yourself

Feeling too powerless to change

Stuck and unable to escape

Incapable to see another way

I need someone to shake me... to wake me

I don't even need full clarity

Just to start the shift from blind to blurry

[Chorus 2: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis, both]

Have you ever been blinded by the pain?

Losing yourself inside the heartache

And does that mean (does that mean) we cannot change?

Or will we always be seen that way?

[Post-Chorus: Tim Lambesis]

Will we always be seen that way?

And does that really mean we have not changed?

[Bridge: Tim Lambesis]

Or does it only mean

The truth is not in how we're seen?

But in the actions that

We're now determined to take

Revealing the new path

We chose to mend the heartache

Was it a pattern or a disastrous mistake?

Is the truth in what you see or what I say?

[Chorus 3: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis, both]

Have you ever been blinded by the pain?

Losing yourself inside the heartache

And does that mean (does that mean) we cannot change?

Or will we always be seen that way?

[Post-Chorus: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]

Be seen that way?

Blinded by pain? Blinded by the pain

[Outro: Tim Lambesis]

And does that really mean we have not changed?
