lyrics

Turn around and you'll find
I can't see you
Sealed beneath your disguise
I can't see you

Where did she escape?
The child inside you
Imprisoned by hate
Of yourself

I saw tired eyes, tired eyes in you
I fought tired eyes, tired eyes in you

Step a little closer and smile
I can see you
Somewhere beneath your disguise
I can see you

You saw tired eyes, tired eyes in me
You fought tired eyes, tired eyes in me

Turn around and you'll find
I can't see you
Sealed beneath your disguise
I can't see you

Hubardo
by Kayo Dot

supported by 4 fans who also own “Tired Eyes”

Impatient listeners are weeded out in the opening 5 minutes, while those who persevere are treated to an unforgettable experience. This monster weaves an impossibly dense tapestry of sound with the replay value of a Final Fantasy. Scalding technical metal, rich chamber compositions and some trademark twists provide a great soundtrack to the lyrical concept. This seamless union between words and music creates a vivid and powerful narrative. Amongst the finest works of a one of a kind band. Entheogenesis
