Daron Reveur - Young and Blind Lyrics

I'm not perfect and honestly never claimed to be
Chasing after dreams that are little more real than make believe
Doubters down my back my back 'cause imperfect is all that they can see
Take away the hate and their mind is blank, it's a vacancy

But maybe there's some truth to people doubting my fire
Pen and pad to medicate until this feeling retires
Often wonder where I'm going with this life that I've been living
Where do I even begin to place a meaning to this life

Or is it nothing? Maybe there's no meaning to find
And all these problems only live within my mansion of mind
Or maybe I should get to praying for assistance divine
Being marched into tomorrow and can't break from the line

Create from my mind the picture that's just starting to show
I'm not sure of where I'm headed, where I'm likely to go
But I've always got the music, soothing, guiding my flow
And if the future comes-a-knocking then I don't really know

Young and blind, young and blind
I don't know where I'm supposed to go now, go now, no
Young and blind, young and blind
How do I grow up when I don't know how? Know how, yeah

I've been thinking in my room, up all night in the dark
I've been looking for myself, searching deep for a spark
Introspective, my perspective isn't taking me far
No directive, look ahead and it's just faded out stars

Faded like leaves, the people that I thought I would be
But lately it seems like all of them are farther from me
I'm chasing my dreams but they keep getting harder to reach
Scraping my knees, the climb is still so far from the peak

Let's take it back to me back at my youngest
And selling out concerts inside of my room
Let's take it back to me over a year ago
Scared of a passion I wouldn't pursue

Let's take it back to me writing these poems
And dreaming of things that I never could do
Never imagined I'd be making music for real
But I'm here and I'm telling the truth

Kinda confused, yeah it's my passion but
That doesn't always put food on my plate
Yeah it's my talent but that doesn't mean
That I'm gonna be noticed for being this great

Yeah I make music with heart and emotion but
Music with feeling won't always get played
Yeah I'm determined but feeling determined
Just doesn't determine for certain my fate

Young and blind, young and blind
I don't know where I'm supposed to go now, go now, no
Young and blind, young and blind
How do I grow up when I don't know how? Know how, yeah

I just wanna find my way and make it to that better place
Chasing more than dollar signs, I just want my peace of mind
Don't know what I hope to find, all I am is young and blind
