Eyes Without a Face
Yearning Shadows: Unveiling the Depths of Despair in 'Eyes Without a Face'
Lyrics
I'm all out of hope
I've lost all hope.
One more bad dream could bring a fall?
A single nightmare could lead to a downfall.
When I'm far from home
When I'm away from home.
Don't call me on the phone
Don't contact me through the phone.
To tell me you're alone
To inform me that you're alone.
It's easy to deceive
It's easy to mislead.
It's easy to tease
It's easy to taunt.
But hard to get release
But challenging to find relief.
Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
Eyes that lack expression or emotion.
Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face
These eyes lack human qualities.
I spend so much time
I've invested a lot of time.
Believing all the lies
Believing in falsehoods.
To keep the dream alive
To sustain a dream.
Now it makes me sad
Now it saddens me.
It makes me mad at truth
It angers me at the truth.
For loving what was you
For loving what used to be you.
Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
Eyes lacking expression or emotion.
Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face
These eyes lack human qualities.
When you hear the music you make a dip
When you hear music, you lose control.
Into someone else's pocket then make a slip
You get involved in someone else's troubles and make a mistake.
Steal a car and go to las vegas oh, the gigolo pool
Engaging in risky behavior like stealing a car and going to Las Vegas.
Hanging out by the state line, turning holy water into wine
Being around questionable places, trying to turn something ordinary into something extraordinary.
Drinkin' it down
Drinking holy water transformed into wine.
I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
Traveling on a psychedelic journey on a bus.
Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip
Reading books related to crime to stay culturally relevant.
I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
Thinking about you while you're somewhere else.
Say your prayers
Urging the listener to say their prayers.
Say your prayers
Repetition for emphasis on the importance of prayer.
Say your prayers
-Now I close my eyes
Closing the eyes in reflection.
And I wonder why
Wondering why.
I don't despise
Not feeling contempt.
Now all I can do
Now left only with the ability to love what once was.
Love what was once
Cherishing what was once vibrant and new.
So alive and new
But it has disappeared from your eyes.
But it's gone from your eyes
Realizing the need to accept the situation.
I'd better realize
Eyes lacking expression or emotion.
Eyes without a face (les yeux sans visage)
These eyes lack human qualities.
Eyes without a face, got no human grace your eyes without a face
Such a loss of humanity in your eyes.
Such a human waste your eyes without a face
Describing the absence of human qualities as a waste.
And now it's getting worse
The situation is deteriorating.
