I Will No Longer Let the Blind Lead Me
You drug me along here
Made me meaningless
And incomplete
Haunted by shadows of my past
Filled with shame and reject
My heart cast down again
My life made meaningless
Gave too much to you
You can’t see me through
I have to cut you loose
So I can walk again
So I can breathe again
I have to let it go
You ll never know
The pain you ve caused me
Because you saw nothing in me
You were to be my mirror
Telling me of my worth
But instead you treated me like dirt
Pearls before the swine again
I have to put this to an end
Remove your swine’s view
So I can see past you
See that I am not what you see
To see there is more in me
And now to bring your halo down
Remove the anchor that’s brought me down
I am not what you see
I am not attached to your strings
I am a radiant beauty
That you fail to see
Because you are blind to these things
I will no longer let the blind lead me
