Purple Eyes
Fact Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Traces a picture of the sky
A line between the points
Leads me to the dark night
The distorted sound
The distorted light
Reality through haze
A justice disguised
Just about to burst
Beyond the pupil of the eyes
It strikes the heart unveiled
A bird forced to fly
Before you woke up from your dream
Raise the sunlight from the horizon
About to freeze
Dance with the instinct
Come closer to me
To tell you that isn't easy
The lyrics of Purple Eyes by Fact describe a disoriented state of mind where reality seems blurred and distorted. The burned glass tracing a picture of the sky represents how the singer tries to make sense of their surroundings but cannot distinguish between what's real and what's not. The line between the points and the distorted sound and light symbolize how the singer is gradually losing touch with reality. In this state of mind, justice is disguised as they cannot differentiate between right and wrong.
The lyrics also describe a stirring passion that's about to burst beyond the pupil of the eyes. The singer feels compelled to act but is unsure about what the right course of action is. The bird forced to fly is a metaphor for taking action despite feeling uncertain. The line before you woke up from your dream implies that the singer is waiting for the right opportunity to act. They want to raise the sunlight from the horizon and overcome the darkness that surrounds them.
The last part of the lyrics mentions freezing and how coming closer to the instinct isn't easy. This could suggest that the singer is hesitant to take action or that they're unsure if their instincts can be trusted. Overall, the lyrics of Purple Eyes describe a state of mind where reality seems distorted, justice is disguised, and the singer is struggling to find the right course of action.
