Lyrics:
Look into my eyes
Look into the darkness
Look into the void, and
Look into yourself and then

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you hear
Tell me what you want to be

Can you hear the sound?
Can you feel the heat?
Do you look away?
Do you feel your heartbeat?

Listen to the voice
Listen to the dream
Listen to the fact that
Nothing here is what it seems

Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you want to be

Is there any doubt?
Is there any fear?
Is there any way, that
You can run away from here?

Do you want to live?
Do you want to die?
Do you want to get high?
Do you need an alibi?

This is what you want
This is what you see
This is what you fear, and 
This is what you want to be

Look into my eyes
Look into the darkness
Look into the void, and
Look into yourself and then

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you hear
Tell me what you want to be

Can you hear the sound?
Can you feel the heat?
Do you look away?
Do you feel your heartbeat?

The most extreme level
The most extreme level

Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you want to be

Is there any doubt?
Is there any fear?
Is there any way, that
You can run away from here?

Do you want to live?
Do you want to die?
Do you want to get high?
Do you need an alibi?

The most extreme level

Into Focus

Perspective



I am thinking, "No,
things shouldn't be this way.."
I am thinking how
I could be falling prey...

We have a common enemy, you and me
A flash of truth from your eyes 
to my eyes...
And all these mirrors 
held up to us
break brightness up 
They're breaking the brightness up...

You're taking the steep climb 
The rocks you packed around your heart 
Your spirit puts a panic on 
as is its habit.
You summon up a storm again,
I watch it rage around you..
Really don't want to join you there:
Don't drag me in...

This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine, 
Not mine...

Can you hem the edges of your mind?
Your spirit is so flyaway 
You shred up your old name 
Every nerve taut and frayed
The roar levels all, levels all...
You draw in smoke to get some air
You sit in to the drowning box
and dig your heels in there 

This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine, 
Not mine...

Things aren't clear from here -
You're in your fury; I'm in the fog -
I don't know the right words,
I don't know the code, 
I don't have it!

And you've got some rage to spend,
my darlin, 
but you've got nothing to burn
And you've got some rage to spend,
my darlin, 
but you've got nothing to burn...

The Whole Of One Half

The origins of Blind Faith lay in the break-up of Cream in mid-1968. That trio was a major critical and commercial success, with millions of record sales in a few years, bringing international popularity to the group and each member. However, the band was crumbling from within because of frequent animosity between bassist Jack Bruce and drummer Ginger Baker, with Eric Clapton doing his best to mediate. Additionally, Clapton grew tired of playing commercially driven blues and hoped to progress with a new, experimental, less straitjacketed approach to the genre. The group disbanded in November 1968 following two concerts at the Royal Albert Hall.

Steve Winwood had faced similar problems to Clapton in the Spencer Davis Group, where he had been the lead singer for three years. Winwood wanted to experiment with the band's sound by infusing jazz elements, but left due to his musical differences, instead forming a new band, Traffic, in 1967. While that band was on hiatus in Christmas 1968, Winwood started to jam with his good friend Clapton in the latter's basement in Surrey, England. Clapton was pleased with the jam sessions with Winwood, but was hesitant to start a serious group. The music press were hopeful that Clapton would form a band even better than Cream. At one point, Clapton and Winwood thought they might record with Duck Dunn and Al Jackson Jr., the rhythm section of Booker T. & the M.G.'s.

In early 1969, Clapton and Winwood moved to Traffic's rehearsal cottage in Aston Tirrold, Berkshire. Baker turned up one day to sit in with them, and the three seriously considered forming a group. Clapton questioned letting Baker in the band, because he had promised Bruce that, if they were to work with one another again, all three of them would play. Moreover, Clapton did not want to reunite with Cream barely nine weeks after the break-up, and also did not want to deal with another band whose members had large reputations individually. Winwood ultimately persuaded Clapton to finalize Baker's inclusion in the line-up, arguing that Baker strengthened their musicianship and that it would be hard to find an equally talented drummer. Traffic was put on hold and the other remaining members, multi-instrumentalist Chris Wood and drummer / singer Jim Capaldi, were informed. Winwood later realised that Clapton would probably have rather had Capaldi in the new group instead of Baker.

If you love something, set it free.  If it comes back to you, it was meant to be.  Unless you throw it in the river.
