About the song
“Beati monoculi in terra caecorum,” says an ancient aphorism attributed to Seneca. Literally: “Blessed are those who can see with one eye in a land of the blind.” Today, the real problem is that the blindness of the majority isn’t even perceived anymore. It’s an induced blindness, fueled by manipulated communication channels designed to shut down critical thinking and keep people numb, preventing them from moving from constant complaining to real action.
This reflection is the foundation of “Totally Blind”, the new single by Ego Divided: a call to open your eyes again and start thinking for yourself.
Ferocious death metal in pure Suffocation style, thrash‑infused riffs fired like machine guns, granite‑tight rhythms, and vocals shifting from abyssal growls to a clean chorus that sticks in your head. The perfect combination to deliver a message that’s uncomfortable but necessary, meant to shake consciences and reactivate dormant synapses.
The track features the band’s full line‑up: Mauro Tagliavia on vocals, Alessio Lopes on bass, Massimo Masi and Alberto Zimone on guitars, with Phil Spinelli (Tol Morwen) as special guest on drums.
Lyrics
Fantasy, in our mind
forced to live totally blind
really distortion,
illusion of a simple life.
Conflicts, structured in detail
ready and willing for the ride,
controlled peoples,
fate is decided at the table of life.
Lower our cards and decide the game,
before they destroy all freedom
whole peoples in totally blind
seems to be nothing to change
the fate of the world decided by whom
disintegrate their cords before our life.
Lower our cards and decide the game,
before they destroy all freedom
whole peoples in totally blind
seems to be nothing to change
the fate of the world decided by whom
disintegrate their cords before our life.
Disorder, in our part
they are the rich and the poor us
destruction and war
illusion of a perfect life
lo-bo-to-mi-zed, everytime
forced to live totally blind
entity in the dark
hidden but near to each of us.
Lower our cards and decide the game,
before they destroy all freedom
whole peoples in totally blind
seems to be nothing to change
the fate of the world decided by whom
disintegrate their cords before our life
Lower our cards and decide the game,
before they destroy all freedom
whole peoples in totally blind
seems to be nothing to change
the fate of the world decided by whom
disintegrate their cords before our life
Lower our cards and decide the game ourselves
Lower our cards and decide the game ourselves
Lower our cards and decide the game ourselves
Lower our cards and decide the game ourselves
