| What does it mean when a man’s eyes turn black |
| When you’re making love? |
| What does it mean when a man’s eyes turn black? |
| Tell me, ‘cause I never seen something quite scared me like that. |
| |
| I saw darkness where I should have seen light, |
| And it wasn’t the beautiful darkness of night, |
| But a thing of a kind that would cause a fright. |
| I saw darkness where I should have seen light. |
| Where have you been? Where have you been? |
| Eyes more frightening, I’ve never seen. |
| What do they want with me? What do they want with me? |
| Eyes more frightening, I’ve never seen. |
| |
| Same as it means when a prince’s eyes turn white, |
| Sitting by his door in the midnight, |
| Tin-foil on his windows ‘cause he can’t take light, |
| And it wasn’t the beautiful wisdom of light |
| But a white of a kind that would give you a fright, |
| Colour all gone, no iris in sight; |
| I saw darkness where I should have seen light. |
| Where have you been? Where have you been? |
| Eyes more frightening, I’ve never seen. |
| What do they want with me? What do they want with me? |
| Eyes more frightening I’ve never seen. |
| |
| Same when the friend of the prince spikes your smoke |
| Hoping to make you a mess and a joke. |
| But you never were his, you never were his, |
| No matter what he did. |
| Where have you been? Where have you been? |
| Eyes more frightening I’ve never seen. |
| What do they want with me? What do they want with me? |
