You think we're broken
What if we're just a little cracked?
I know we're choking on the little things
That seem to come with time

One word and watch our armies brawl
No one will bend until one falls
We used to fight, you for me and me for you
Tied up without your words that might cut through

It's like trying to teach blue to a blind man
Rude to a kind man or walking on the sun
You try and I do all that I can
But teaching blue to a blind mind can't be done

We used our soldiers
And it was us against the world
The toll was taken now we're
Buried under life that comes with time

One word and watch our eagles brawl
No one will bend until one falls
We used to fight, you for me and me for you

It's like trying to teach blue to a blind man
Truth to a lie and walking on the sun
I try and I do all that I can
But teaching blue to a blind mind can't be done

We can go home, you can sleep
And I can think for a while
We can't go on and on, on empty
On endless oceans dry

It's like trying to teach blue to a blind man
Rude to a kind man and screaming at the sun
You try and I, I do all that I can
But teaching blue to a blind mind, can't be done
It can't be done

I'm teaching blue to a blind mind
