Eyes Wide Shut
Mike Liebo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Told me I was groovy
Said, hey man
Lets watch a movie
Eyes wide shut
While you do me
Do me
Do me
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
Embrace the illusion
Please don't mind this
Minor intrusion
Trapped in dilemma
Cause or confusion
Can you christen
This crystal amusement
Ok here is my body livid
I'm a fire
Can you catch me trippin
Diggin' in the ditch
Watch'ya sippin'?
Can I have some?
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
Take this puff of cigarette slowly
Let it breach your system holy
Fill it
Let it go
For the night
She walked into the room
Told me I was groovy
Said, hey man
Lets watch a movie
Eyes wide shut
While you do me
Do me
Do me
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
No correlation to reverberation
Bouncing around this space station
Now is my bedroom
Trapped in your headroom
Consumed by your ruins
But that's mine too
I'm a mime too
Trying to be silent
Lost in the violent
Antics of your mind tricks
Do you mind?
I find...
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
We're all wearing masks
We're all wearing masks
Who are you?
The song "Eyes Wide Shut" by Mike Liebo explores themes of illusion, confusion, and the masks we wear in society. The first verse describes a sexual encounter where the singer's partner walks into the room and suggests they watch a movie before engaging in sexual activity with the lyrics "Eyes wide shut, while you do me, do me, do me". The use of the phrase "Eyes wide shut" is a reference to the 1999 film of the same name, which explores similar themes of sexual exploration and masking one's true self.
The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes the message that we are all wearing masks and need to embrace the illusion that surrounds us. The next verse goes on to describe the confusion that comes with navigating social situations where people may hide behind their masks. The conversation turns to smoking, and the lyrics suggest that taking a puff of a cigarette can help to ease the tensions of the moment.
The bridge of the song reflects on the confusion and chaos of modern society, with references to space stations and the singer's bedroom as a metaphor for their own internal struggles. The repeated question "Who are you?" at the end of the song suggests a search for identity and a desire to strip away the masks that we all wear.

Bouncing around this space station
Moving freely and unpredictably in this environment
Now is my bedroom
This is now my personal space
Trapped in your headroom
Confined within your thoughts and emotions
Consumed by your ruins
Overwhelmed by the destruction that you have caused
But that's mine too
I am also responsible for this destruction
I'm a mime too
I am pretending to be something I am not
Trying to be silent
Attempting to stay quiet
Lost in the violent
Overwhelmed by the intense emotions
Antics of your mind tricks
Tricks and games played by your thoughts
Do you mind?
Do you object?
I find...
I discover...
Who are you?
Asking the identity of the person

We're all wearing masks
We are not showing our true selves
