Indigo Eyes

Peter Murphy

    Continues after the ad

    Fire burning in a hill
    The lines are rocky rough
    Red angels wait to pick remains
    The cindered shoulder
    Of confused men
    Separate from there, their awe
    With grey desire
    He looks out mad
    His soft grey indigo eyes
    Indigo eyes
    Asking

    His heaven is uncovered not
    A black tree blocks his way
    His way is skating round a dome
    His way is in dismay
    The playmate sings
    Like Orphee in some thunder world
    Asking to be bathed in light
    To be exemplified
    Like Orphee in some thunder world
    Asking to be bathed in light
    To be exemplified

    With grey desire, he looks out mad
    His soft grey indigo eyes
    Indigo eyes

    Continues after the ad

    Saw his past
    He had dug for trust
    With blind infected hands
    And wondered as the hurt bit hard
    Why the sacred weren’t at hand
    Only when his ears were deaf
    To the angels light burst waves
    Only when his ears were deaf
    Did life turn from fog to fog
    But not evil but estranged
    Was not evil but estranged

    Indigo eyes, indigo eyes
    Indigo eyes, indigo eyes

    With grey desire, he looks out mad
    His soft grey indigo eyes
    Indigo eyes

    Soft grey
    Red angels wait to touch
    A black tree
    Blocks his way
    Indigo eyes
    Indigo eyes
