In My Eyes

Liner Notes

So, when I started with the whole "Kim o' the Concrete Jungle" project, there were some rules: 1) no standard 4/4 rock rhythms with a backbeat; 2) beats concentrating on the toms; 3) bass forward in the mix. I haven't always stuck strictly to that, but in this song I have.

Lyrics

From my secret place I see in my eye All the sights below, as they pass me by The forbidden fruits, the lowered voices Misunderstandings and desperate choices

It's all happening in my eyes Laid out before me, I wonder why And it makes me think of despair And desperation I see there

Under tyranny, in silence suffer Those with privelege crush under their heels All opposition, all independence No mercy offered, no quarter given

And there in my eyes Observation doesn't lie And everything I see tells a tale In my eyes

This is some prog rock madness and it’s brilliant. That odd time signature keeps you on your toes. Killer lyrics!
