In Your Eyes
Junkyard Groove Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So what you said
Keeps running through my head
I keep playing those words all over and over again
Smoke screens and smiles
Behind which you hide
Tear down those walls and you begin to see the lie

Pixelated vision of all that's right and wrong
Would you care to step down from your throne
Your no Jesus or an heir to a throne
Would you care to step down to the floor

In your eyes I see nothing at all
In your eyes I see fools gold
In your eyes I see nothing at all
In your eyes I see fools gold

The hunger that you feed
For the greed that you breed
At the cost of human lives
And an age of slavery
Do you hear the children cry
For the mothers that have died
Your silent stammers tell me more than all your lies

Pixelated vision of all that's right and wrong
Would you care to step down from your throne
Your no Jesus or an heir to a throne
Would you care to step down to the floor

In your eyes I see nothing at all
In your eyes I see fools gold
In your eyes I see nothing at all
In your eyes I see fools gold

In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes
I see nothing

In your eyes




In your eyes
I see nothing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Junkyard Groove's song In Your Eyes explores the theme of perception, illusion and self-deception. The opening lines capture the idea of words that are difficult to forget and how they keep playing over and over again in a person's mind. The next lines talk about the smoke screens and smiles into which people hide their true selves. The reference to tearing down walls to see the lie indicates the falsehood and pretense that pervades human interactions.


The lyrics go on to describe a pixelated vision of what is right and wrong, which asks the listener to reconsider their views on morality and values. The idea of stepping down from a throne brings to mind images of power, ego and hierarchical structures in society. The lines "you are no Jesus or an heir to a throne, would you care to step down to the floor" demands humility and urges people to recognize their flaws and limitations.


The chorus repeatedly uses the phrase "in your eyes" to indicate that a person's perception of reality is subjective, and that what they see might not reflect the truth. The line "in your eyes, I see fools gold" is a metaphor for how people can be deceived by illusions and false promises, and how this is often done at the cost of others' lives and freedoms. The final line "in your eyes, I see nothing" indicates a sense of disillusionment and disappointment when one realizes that what they thought was true is actually false.


Line by Line Meaning

So what you said
The words you said to me


Keeps running through my head
Are constantly replaying in my mind


I keep playing those words all over and over again
I can't stop thinking about them


Smoke screens and smiles
You hide behind a deceptive facade


Behind which you hide
To conceal your true intentions


Tear down those walls and you begin to see the lie
If you remove your defenses, you will realize the truth


Pixelated vision of all that's right and wrong
Your perception of what is good and bad is distorted


Would you care to step down from your throne
Can you humble yourself and shed your superiority complex


Your no Jesus or an heir to a throne
You are not a savior or royalty


Would you care to step down to the floor
Can you come down to a more equal level


In your eyes I see nothing at all
I don't detect any sincerity in your eyes


In your eyes I see fools gold
What I see in your eyes is a false image of value


The hunger that you feed
The drive for power, wealth and control that motivates you


For the greed that you breed
Which results in exploitation and injustice


At the cost of human lives
People suffer because of your actions


And an age of slavery
There are concerning trends of forced labor and servitude


Do you hear the children cry
Children are the innocent victims of your offenses


For the mothers that have died
Families suffer because of the consequences of your decisions


Your silent stammers tell me more than all your lies
Your nervous mannerisms reveal your true feelings better than your words
