1. Blinded

From Dawn Will Break (2002)

I know the way.  I have, before, been there.

Seen it a thousand times.
Walked there, drove there, rode there, ran there, sat there, 
been there.

I know the Way, but
where I am unknown I stay,
reasoning I should be deserving,
unknowing where I am known,

Blinded.
