Evil Eye
Elf Power Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See the same thing everywhere
Feels like something's in your way
Watching closely every day
Lifts you up into an ugly rain
And everything you did was wrong
Nothing ever came along
The world keeps moving anyway
All you do is sit around and wait
And the evil eye is
Watching through the trees
When you wake up in the morning, you are free
You could run across the whole world
Evil eye is watching over
It's your face he seeks
Can you feel it deep inside
Digging like a parasite?
Sucking 'til thе blood is gone
Eats you up until the dawn
Chasing you a million miles away
Good old flеsh, don't go away
Pulls you further everyday
Takes you into every place
Lets you look on every face
Takes you home and puts you down to sleep
And the evil eye is
Watching through the trees
When you wake up in the morning, you are free
You could run across the whole world
Evil eye is watching over
It's your face he seeks
And the evil eye is
Watching through the trees
When you wake up in the morning, you are free
You could run across the whole world
Evil eye is watching over
It's your face he seeks
The lyrics of "Evil Eye" by Elf Power convey a sense of constant surveillance and unease, as the singer feels like they are being watched and hindered in their movements. The repeated mention of the "evil eye" creates a menacing atmosphere, suggesting a malevolent force that follows and observes their every action. The feeling of being trapped and unable to escape is evident, with the lyrics painting a picture of a world where everything feels wrong and there is nothing but waiting and stagnation.
There is a sense of despair and hopelessness in the lyrics, as the singer laments that nothing they do seems to be right and that they are constantly under scrutiny. The imagery of being lifted up into an "ugly rain" and feeling like something is always in their way adds to the feelings of frustration and helplessness. The mention of the evil eye watching through the trees creates a haunting image, further emphasizing the sense of being constantly monitored and judged.
The lyrics also touch upon themes of internal struggle and self-destruction, with references to feeling something "digging like a parasite" deep inside and consuming them until the dawn. This imagery of being consumed by a relentless force adds to the overall sense of dread and impending danger that the evil eye represents. The singer seems to be haunted by this presence, constantly chased and unable to find respite or escape.
Despite the darkness and oppression described in the lyrics, there is a glimmer of hope in the refrain about waking up in the morning and feeling free. The idea that one could run across the whole world suggests a desire for freedom and liberation from the evil eye's watchful gaze. However, the final lines about the evil eye watching over and seeking their face hint at the inescapable nature of the malevolent force, leaving the listener with a sense of inevitability and dread.
