EYES
Ghost/Aeon Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Through scapes of murmur
Noisy walls of sound
Without a starlit night
Shores are nowhere to be found
On seas of wonder
Ye confused strays
Without a guiding light
You see no ways

Into the eyes of fire
Into the gaze ablaze
Into the burning light
Of Satan's rays
Into the source of wisdom
Beyond the Bible lies
Into the endless depth
Of Satan's eyes

Spiral and Pulsating
His eyes are enthralling
His eyes like a vortex
A well in which you're falling

The swamp of feces
That is the world
Flatuates a whirlwind storm
in which you swirl

In disarray you ponder
Your soul malaise
Abandon the long lost man
Your child portrays

Into the eyes of fire
Into the gaze ablaze
Into the burning light
Of Satan's rays
Into the source of wisdom
Beyond the Bible lies
Into the endless depth
Of Satan's eyes

Into the eyes of fire
Into the gaze ablaze
Into the burning light
Of Satan's rays
Into the source of wisdom
Beyond the Bible lies

Look into the endless depth
Of Satan's eyes

Through scapes of murmur
Amidst the whispering landscapes

Noisy walls of sound
Loud walls of noise block your way

Without a starlit night
You can't use the stars as a guide

Shores are nowhere to be found
You're lost without any landmarks

On seas of wonder
In a mysterious sea

Ye confused strays
You're lost and confused

Without a guiding light
There's no light to lead the way

You see no ways
You can't find a way out

Into the eyes of fire
Looking into Satan's fiery eyes

Into the gaze ablaze
Staring into Satan's intense gaze

Into the burning light
Entering Satan's burning presence
