Blind Lyrics
I seen a girl
With a guy
With hair like yours
From what I remember
He took her hand
And smiled her name
Her face like yours
She smiled the same
From what I remember
Been so long since last December
She walked your walk
She talked like you
She shimmered strong
She shined right through
From what I remember
I said I seen a girl
With a guy
So who I'd seen
So who am I
Now I can't remember
Been so long since last December
So I'm sending
Open letter to the perfect girlfriend
I'm still mighty, tiny
Hoping that you'd be my little godsend
Because right now I'll take any and blindly
Before I find another noose to fit us
Before we choose another hand to hit us
Let us ask each other
What's the difference
Because if you save yourself
I'll save you all the time
Open letter to the legions leering
Are we entertained yet
Why don't you cast your gaze into the moonlit clearing
Cause my love, my love is a sucker bet
Before I find another noose to fit us
Before we choose another hand to hit us
Let us ask each other
What's the problem
Why don't you save yourself
I'll save you all the time
Because if you save yourself
I'll save you all the time
Now what's to blame
Save yourself, I'll save you all the time
Now what's to blame
Save yourself, I'll save you all the time (x2)
With a guy
With hair like yours
From what I remember
And smiled her name
Her face like yours
She smiled the same
Been so long since last December
She walked your walk
She talked like you
She shined right through
From what I remember
I said I seen a girl
So who I'd seen
So who am I
Now I can't remember
So I'm sending
Open letter to the perfect girlfriend
Hoping that you'd be my little godsend
Because right now I'll take any and blindly
Before I find another noose to fit us
Let us ask each other
What's the difference
Because if you save yourself
Open letter to the legions leering
Are we entertained yet
Why don't you cast your gaze into the moonlit clearing
Before I find another noose to fit us
Before we choose another hand to hit us
Let us ask each other
Why don't you save yourself
I'll save you all the time
Because if you save yourself
Now what's to blame
Save yourself, I'll save you all the time
Now what's to blame

Generally agreeing with the comment corrections...
I take the first part as the speaker thinking to himself, 'yours' being the memory of an ex-lover. She's not there to listen, but the memory of her is still so powerful that he, not only addresses it as if she could hear, but frames new experiences, new people, in the context of her memory. Even gone, she's more important to him than most of the people around him.
as to the later part, I hear an implied or whispered '[If you] save yourself I'll save you all the time,' a subtle acknowledgement that, whatever role the lovers feel they are playing, they are in some inescapable way alone and separate. It has a similar theme, in a sorrowful mood, to the exultation of Poppy on Desperate Youth.
It is powerful, and reminds me of someone I still know, and someone I used to.
"open letter to the perfect girlfriend" "open letter to the legions leering" don't type the lyrics up if you don't know them
oh and "cast your gaze into the moon lit clearing"
is it not "my love is a suckerbet"? not 'suckerbat'?
I also believe that he says "Are we entertained yet" not "Ah, we entertained you".
Hey thanks for submitting the wrong lyrics I really appreciate it.
yeah. im really grateful too. IDIOT
it's my love is a sycophant isnt it? and that means \SIK-uh-fuhnt\, noun: A person who seeks favor by flattering people of wealth or influence
hey i was wondering about what you guys thought about the meaning.
he says "save yourself i'll save you all the time" now does he mean that if she save herself then he'll save her all the time or does it mean if she save herself it'll save her time from having him save her?
im leaning toward the latter.
@dreame1989 I think it means "Save yourself" as in "Save yourself for me" or "Save your love for me" and in return, "I'll save you all the time."

Yeah, a lot of these lyrics are wrong, but whatever. This song is fantastic nevertheless.
I feel nostalgic when I listen to it. God it's great, haha.
