Bedroom Eyes
Mike Chlasciak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're stumbling in the darkness like you're running blind
Hey, can't you see we've been fooling around?
This same old graveyard on the same playground
Be my late night movie star
By my nature, I can tell who you are?
Through all lies, I see your bedroom eyes
Baby, baby, got no self-defense for your bedroom eyes
Over and over then we do it again
I haven't seen a stop sign since I don't know when
Up and down this lonely street, guess I'll see you around
Is there any way to stop this merry go round?
You're my late night movie star, yes, you are
By my nature, I can tell who you are?
Through all lies, I see your bedroom eyes
There's no innocence in your bedroom eyes
Baby baby got no self-defense for your bedroom eyes
Oh baby, whats on your mind?
Get to see you around, oh
The lyrics of the song "Bedroom" by Mike Chlasciak revolve around the complexities of a physical relationship. The singer seems to be addressing his partner and asking her what is going on in her mind. He notices her stumbling in darkness like she is running blindly, and he wants to bring her into light. However, he acknowledges that they have been fooling around in the same old graveyard on the same playground, hinting that the relationship has not really progressed. He wants her to be his late night movie star, but he can see through all the lies, revealing that there is no innocence in her eyes.
The singer seems to be struggling with the consequences of a relationship that seems to be purely physical. He admits that he has not seen a stop sign in a long time, meaning he feels like he is spiraling out of control without any way to stop. He finds himself walking up and down this lonely street and wondering if he will continue to see her around. The lines "Baby, baby, got no self-defense for your bedroom eyes" indicate that the singer has lost control of the situation, and he cannot resist the temptation even though he knows where it might lead.
