Eyes Without a Face Lyrics

I'm all out of hope One more bad dream could bring a fall When I'm far from home Don't call me on the phone To tell me you're alone It's easy to deceive It's easy to tease But hard to get release Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Got no human grace your eyes without a face. I spend so much time Believing all the lies To keep the dream alive Now it makes me sad It makes me mad at truth For loving what was you Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Got no human grace your eyes without a face. When you hear the music you make a dip Into someone else's pocket then make a slip. Steal a car and go to Las Vegas oh, the gigolo pool. I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip. I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so Say your prayers. Say your prayers. Say your prayers. Now I close my eyes And I wonder why I don't despise Now all I can do Is love what was once So alive and new But it's gone from your eyes I'd better realise Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face Got no human grace your eyes without a face. Such a human waste your eyes without a face And now it's getting worse.

Meaning of Eyes Without a Face

“Eyes Without a Face” is a haunting exploration of obsession and delusion fueled by grief and a desperate clinging to a lost love. Billy Idol’s voice drips with weary sadness as he reveals an existence consumed by fabricated memories and lies, desperately trying to keep a cherished dream – represented by the “eyes without a face” – alive. The chaotic imagery—a psychedelic bus ride, stolen cars, murder books—masks a profound emotional emptiness and inability to accept reality. He’s trapped in a cycle of deception, stealing moments from others, mirroring his own hollow pursuit. Ultimately, the song conveys a sense of tragic resignation; he recognizes the futility of loving something that is irrevocably gone, acknowledging it as a “human waste,” yet still unable to fully let go, forever haunted by the ghost of what was.
