‘Crazy Eyes’ is an alternative rock song dedicated to those who struggle with mental illnesses. Exploring and showcasing the feelings of losing yourself within the symptoms of difficult illnesses like Schizophrenia and PTSD, with lyrics expressing helplessness and eerie noises and voices fading in and out throughout the song to paint a picture of the overwhelming inner noise wall that people can experience during difficult episodes. The inspiration for this single has come from many places
including familial and personal experiences.
lyrics
What's this feeling?
Feel it creeping
Closer to me
Blurry vision
Soulless creature
My reflection
Time slows down
In my head
Melts away as you dance
Am I running out of breath?
Is it all in my head?
In my head
My head's spinning
My heads spinning 'round
Lost direction
Fear those crazy eyes
My head's spinning
Running circles
Lost who I'm meant to be
Deep purple
Crazy eyes
Haunt me down in the night
I can't escape you
Shattered glass on my
Marble floor and I
Need a saviour
Time stops
In my head
Run along and join this dance
Am I running out of breath?
Is it all in my head?
In my head
My head's spinning
My heads spinning 'round
Lost direction
Fear those crazy eyes
My head's spinning running circles
Lost who I'm meant to be
Deep purple
Crazy eyes
My head's spinning
My heads spinning 'round
Lost direction
Fear those crazy eyes
My head's spinning running circles
Lost who I'm meant to be
Deep purple
Crazy eyes
Crazy eyes
*bridge* Vocalization
My head's spinning running circles
Lost who I'm meant to be
Deep purple
Crazy eyes
My head's spinning
My heads spinning 'round
Lost direction
Fear those crazy eyes
My head's spinning running circles
Lost who I'm meant to be
Deep purple
Crazy eyes
Crazy eyes
