A Lost Love and a Roving Eye歌词完整版
"Something in my eye, something in my eye,"
the world as one did cry out in pain and rising terror.
The worms so very small at once attacked us all
nothing to do but fall down in our unplanned obsequence.
As they burrowed inside us,
nothing remained to hide us from ourselves.
See them swim through the air,
they’re descending to glare at me
These floating eyes of God.
I remember the days
when we’d say you were crazy
inventing things so very odd.
Just a fact of life now—
We’ve accepted it somehow—
the gaze from which we’re never free.
Every other eye from it’s socket did fly
while we screamed our goodbye in anguish and confusion.
Now eyes of every scale from butterfly to whale
watch from the air to curtail rebellious behavior.
In our minds images gather;
we see things that we’d rather that we had not seen.
Shared a coffee last night
with my love blocked from sight
by the mask that I wear when I sleep.
My love still has both eyes,
have the floaters got wise
to the secret we’re trying to keep.
Just a matter of time
‘til they uncover our crime
and that will mean the end of me.
When a sight is seen that displeases our masters
all the people gather 'round.
All are compelled to stare at the offending party—
with our looks the villain we’ll hound.
As our vacant eye cavities align on what they cannot see
a beam of fire erupts out of each staring cyclops head.
Somewhere an eye falls to the ground—
unseen, but does it make a sound?—
unseeing, as are all the eyes belonging to the dead.
See them swim through the air,
they’re descending to glare at me,
these floating eyes of God.
