Eyes
Roses. Lyrics

The song "Eyes" by Roses. is a reflection on the dynamics of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics and melody seem to convey a sense of desperation, as it speaks to the turmoil and confusion of two people who are struggling to understand their feelings for each other. The song highlights the difficulties of trying to navigate a relationship that is full of contradictions and mixed signals. The opening lines of "I'm alive, I feel it now" suggest a newfound optimism, perhaps arising from the prospect of finding love in someone else. However, this feeling quickly gives way to uncertainty and doubt as the lyrics go on to say "Out of line we got ourselves in a look, wait we are not fine, wait, you are not mine. We find." This notion of being "out of line" suggests that perhaps the relationship is seen as not conventional or acceptable by society's standards, as the couple acknowledges they are not fine and suggests that they may need to redefine their status and reframe their expectations.

The chorus of the song appears to be the most poignant part of it as the lyrics repeat the phrase "our eyes are making out." The phrase is both a literal description of two people intimately gazing into each other's eyes but also implies the notion of making out or kissing, which suggests an inherent desire within the couple is constantly building up. The phrase "we're not made for this, fighting love" hints at the ongoing stress and tension in the relationship, where love seems to be continuously opposed by external forces, highlighting the couple's unstable bond. The song's final line, "We're too close to be out of touch" implies that the two are still very attached to each other, despite their discomfort and unease.
