EYES
Nude Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're gonna grow you up slowly
We're gonna chain you to steel
Sand in the hand
Will tell you in the end
Nest your veins and slumber
While I feed my arms for love murder

Round about, round about, round about now
Sorry to say, the others didn't make it
Round about, round about, round about now
You're my ticket outta here

Devour you slowly
Love you to death
Sand in the hand
Will tell you in the end
Nest your veins and slumber
For it's a-comin'

Round about, round about, round about now
Sorry to say, the others didn't make it
Round about, round about, round about now
You're my ticket out of here

Daddy's little blue eyes, I come for you
Ain't gonna leave her behind
Daddy's little blue eyes, I come for you
They're gonna leave you behind
Daddy's little blue eyes, I come for you
Ain't gonna leave her behind

Daddy's little blue eyes, I come for you
Ain't gonna leave her behind
Daddy's little blue eyes, I come for you (Ooooh)
Ain't gonna leave her behind, behind, yeah (Ooooh)

Leave her behind
Ain't gonna leave her behind





Blue eyes, oh ho
You're my ticket out of here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nude's song "Eyes" depict a dark and intense relationship dynamic. The opening lines, "We're gonna grow you up slowly, We're gonna chain you to steel," suggest a manipulative control over someone's growth and freedom. The singer talks about "feeding their arms for love murder," indicating a destructive and obsessive love. It seems like the person they are addressing is being metaphorically trapped, as represented by the imagery of sand slipping through their hand, revealing the inevitable outcome.


The repetition of "Round about now" adds a sense of urgency and immediacy to the situation. The singer acknowledges the failure of others who couldn't escape but states that the listener is their way out. It appears that the singer intends to consume the listener slowly, loving them to the point of death. There is a sense of both danger and possessiveness in their words.


The phrase "Daddy's little blue eyes" introduces a paternalistic tone, suggesting a power dynamic or perhaps a warped sense of familial love. The singer promises not to leave the listener behind, emphasizing their commitment and determination. Overall, the lyrics of "Eyes" depict a toxic and obsessive relationship where the singer desires control and possession over the listener, even if it means their destruction.
