Blind Generation


Lies they fill our ears, they fill our eyes

The generation prior left to question “why?”

Why we’re blind?

Why we’re deaf?

Simply set in front of a television

Left that’s how we learn, their lies absorbed

Our sight only becoming smaller like tunnel vision

 

They say the more you see the less you know

Well the more we see the more ignorant we grow

Media?

Technology?

A blessing or a curse you tell us

The blind generation
