Tripping a Blind Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Say the word, and I'll be healed Opened eyes, grease my wheels Since my vision's been restored Trip me once, shame on you Trip me twice, I'm the fool Though it's hidden, I've been cured [Refrain] Patience is divine But the virtue is not mine Turn your cheek, gets ripped off That's why God gave you four [Verse 2] This is how you spend life Amused by another's strife Makes me so sad and confused Someone's pain, your leisure Can't explain sick pleasure I'm so glad I'm not you [Refrain] Patience is divine But the virtue is not mine Turn your cheek, gets ripped off That's why we're given four [Verse 3] Throwing wrenches gave a false sense of power What started sweet will soon turn sour Oh so sour, yeah You think it's your place to dispense justice Well, I've been sent to judge the judges You've done well, so well [Pre-Chorus] Goddamn love 'cause it's breaking my heart And if I had one wish I'd see in the dark [Chorus] Tripping a blind man So easy to do Tripping a blind man Why can't it be you? [Verse 4] You want to play God and I know you will If that's the case I'll be the devil Oh, oh, oh, yeah Now who the fuck are you to discipline me? Innocence condemned By the guilty Oh no [Pre-Chorus] Goddamn love 'cause it's breaking my heart And if I had one wish, I'd see in the dark [Chorus] Tripping a blind man So easy to do Tripping a blind man Why can't it be you? [Bridge] Losing grip on his seeing-eye dog's spikey collar Panicking, the startled pet ran to the street Sanitation truck skidding, unable to stop Shoveled up what was left of his canine spot Canine spot As they left, the ground turned muddy crimson "Where's my mutt?" the victim requested EMS responded, "He had to say bye" Teary-eyed, the old man cried, then died, he died Died, died, died, died, died, died [Outro] Patience is divine But the virtue is not mine Turn your cheek, gets ripped off That's why we're given four Patience is divine But the virtue is not mine Eat your lies, peace is nice
