Idol, Billy - Eyes Wide Shut Lyrics






You call me crazy
As you call my name
But your temptations
Drive me insane

A golden silence
With the lights so low
An invitation that I’ll never know

Queen of the scene
But you’re so obscene
With your long black hair
And you just don’t care

The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself

You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut

The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut

Spiral staircase
And a flowing robe
Eyes of fire
That give me hope

But through the airways
A sign so clear
There’s someone else that you hold dear

Changing your mind
In the blink of an eye
And forgettin’ your lies
It was no surprise

The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut

Tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut

Worldwide chaos girl
People love and hate
A nationwide panic, yeah
And the future quakes

The social network
Betrayed my dreams
You with another guy
My mind starts to scream

Tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut

You call me crazy
As you call my name
You call me crazy

The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
You know I fell for you
With my eyes wide shut

The tears I cried
And the truth I denied myself
I should have walked away
With my eyes wide shut

    I can't speak English, I use Gogle translator 😊
    Thank you for being "idle",
    Thank you for singing,
    Dirt. How are you,
    Your voice and music are my best friend,
    when I listen to caress and comfort like a friend and all my troubles disappear,
    Sing more, more, more ... ❤❤❤

  2. W.... N....

    Beautiful vocals of beautiful wow

  3. N.... C....

    The instrumentation and vocals on this recording are intoxicating..really blown away by how strong this album is and how great these songs are...rare to see artists this late in their career not lose a step vocally or dynamically...ROCK ON !!!!!

  4. P.... C....

  13. R.... D....

    Aleshia, promise I'll never leave.

  14. J.... D....

    I cant actually remember the last album that i could listen to from start to finish other then to say it was somewhere in the early to mid 90's and probably involved Guns N Roses. This album is great from start to finish. Congratulations Billy Idol, you fucking nailed It. Cant believe I was this late to the party.

  15. D.... J....

    Reminds me of my ex and the toxicity of a co dependent relationship

  16. D.... S....

    Billy strong!

    Masterpiece!

  23. T.... G....

    This is so...that voice and the lyrics

  24. I.... _....

    Billy is a great song writer!
    alot of truth & messages in his words. Of course they have different meanings for him vs.the audience, nonetheless you can find depth if you really listen & apply it. I could listen to him talk or sing all day bc he has an amazingly soothing voice (& the accent of course)

  25. M.... N....

    Flagship fleet,...cool

  26. M.... N....

    no one can take it...

  27. M.... L....

    I played this album again today and realized that it is just as remarkable now as the first time I heard it. More mature, reflective of his/Steve Stevens journey in this industry. I lived with this in my vehicle's CD player for 2 months when it was first released...it haunted me then and still affects me the same way. Glad to see he is back on tour...will make the effort to catch up with him this summer....

  28. K.... ....

  49. �.... �....

    Дай Бог здоровья, Билли Айдол!!! Классно, профессионально, круто, навсегда! Люблю!

  50. L.... U....

    This album seems to show a newfound maturity in Billy & Steve's songwriting, arranging and playing that has been long awaited. This album may not have the classic hits qualities of the past but it is actually their be stuff so far in terms of quality and musicality. I hope they stick together for some more studio albums along these lines because if they do I can see them writing some amazingly deep stuff that will stand up anywhere.

    L.... U....

    agree... the flamenco in the middle is classic billy/steve greatness... just wow...

  51. D.... ....

    WOW. That scream at 3:15 is so emotional.

  52. C.... J....
