Eyes
Sans Seraph Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've seen it fall apart.
The weight of lust along with guilt,
Has torn my heart a thousands times.
I've thought about it every time the lights went out.
Then sleep slowly takes away the feeling of you.
I've fought off the anger,
I've waisted off my spark.
And here across the chest;
The scar that marks the spot
Where love was lost.
It's all been torn,
Torn away,
I waisted off my heart...
To give you all ever want to run...
And kill me, love...
Seems like the angels are flying away
And all is lost.
Seems like they're currently taking away all I've
Worked for here.
If you want a confession you'll just have to wait.
It seems life's a lesson I'll just have to take,
And learn it's design,
Straighten the edges and fall face forward...here.
Seems like the angels are flying away
And all is lost.
Seems like they're currently taking away all I've
Worked for here.
The leader speaks; he has the floor.
It all began with love and ends with war,
All the fires burn 'til nothing's left but ash.
Heal me, heal you, heal all....
Seems like the angels are flying away
And all is lost.
Seems like they're currently taking away all I've
Worked for here.
I'm still here.
The lyrics of Sans Seraph's song "Eyes" describe a person who has emerged from a state of madness and is reflecting on the aftermath of their past mistakes. The weight of both lust and guilt has torn their heart apart, and they can't stop thinking about their past actions - it's as if the memory of it haunts them even when they're trying to sleep. The person has been in a state of constant anger, which has taken a toll on them emotionally and mentally. They feel as if they have wasted their spark and their heart to give everything to someone they loved, who ended up betraying them. But, despite all of this, the person is still standing strong and refuses to give up.
The song speaks to the very human experiences of heartbreak, guilt, and pain. The line "I've fought off the anger, It's torn away, I've wasted off my spark" illustrates how when someone is hurt, it is easy to let anger consume them, but at the same time, it can cause them to lose their spark and passion for life. The song concludes with the line, "I'm still here" - which can be interpreted as a declaration of resilience and a refusal to be defeated by the pain of the past.

I crawled out of madness the other day,
Recently, I emerged from insanity.
I've seen it fall apart.
I witnessed its destruction.
The weight of lust along with guilt,
Hedonic desires and remorse weigh heavily on me.
Has torn my heart a thousands times.
My heart has been ripped apart countless times.
I've thought about it every time the lights went out.
Every night, in the dark, I contemplate it.
Then sleep slowly takes away the feeling of you.
Eventually, I find solace in slumber, forgetting you.
I've fought off the anger,
I struggled against my rage.
It's torn away.
It won, leaving me ravaged.
I've waisted off my spark.
I squandered my passion.
And here across the chest;
A scar remains, etched upon my heart.
The scar that marks the spot
It indicates where
Where love was lost.
Love was lost.
It's all been torn,
Ripped apart, all lost.
Torn away,
Torn away.
I wasted off my heart...
I spent my heart in vain.
To give you all ever want to run...
You received everything you needed to flee.
And kill me, love...
My demise, my beloved.
Seems like the angels are flying away
The seraphim seem to depart.
And all is lost.
All hope is erased.
Seems like they're currently taking away all I've
They're taking everything I have.
Worked for here.
Worked so hard to achieve.
If you want a confession you'll just have to wait.
If you seek the truth, patience is required.
It seems life's a lesson I'll just have to take,
Life teaches us all.
And learn it's design,
To learn its shape,
Straighten the edges and fall face forward...here.
With effort, we can better ourselves.
The leader speaks; he has the floor.
The authority now speaks.
It all began with love and ends with war,
Love's conflict ends in violence.
All the fires burn 'til nothing's left but ash.
Destruction leaves only ruin.
Heal me, heal you, heal all....
We seek healing and reconciliation.
Seems like the angels are flying away
The seraphim seem to depart.
And all is lost.
All hope is erased.
Seems like they're currently taking away all I've
They're taking everything I have.
Worked for here.
Worked so hard to achieve.
I'm still here.
Despite everything, I carry on.
