Syd Matters - Black & White Eyes Lyrics

OMG I love this song 😍
But I don’t know « Life is Strange » 😅

Λένια αν τσιλάρεις ακουγοντας το σου θυμίζω ότι έχει PoL το βράδυ να σε συγχισει πάλι..

Yup .. tears

Most people here got this song wrong i think... everybody says "uuuuuuhhh travel back in time this is sooooo Maxime uuuh". Nah dude, this song's about a girl that has severe depression and drug addiction, and despite the efforts of her man, ends up killing herself. Get this

in can be inspiration, yes is not correct to think its max, but the song came before game and probably influenced the character

Max never Maxime dude

It's amazing how they managed to hide such a dark story behind this cheerful music O_O

If I had a chance I would do a very strange song video for this song☹️

I'm here because of Life is Strange

Damn bro i'm amazed how much your music is helpful for me

She can travel back in time

I simply love this music.

This is totally max, all along the white line, she can travel back it time?! Anyone remember the spiral white line you use to travel back in time?!

White Line... Is... The cocaine...

"All along the white line, she can travel back in time"

White line... White line... Suspicious.

We've all known a girl that, despite our best efforts, just couldn't be saved. I hope she found her Peace.

This should be in LiS Season 2

Lucas B. Delwing question is how would it fit in

Jack King the question is how wouldn't it fit in?

I like the sound, but the lyrics are terrible and uninspired.

@Daniel Minighiti I could do better and I'm not a musician, if that's any point of reference. My version would sound basically the same and actually mean something.

@Artyom Alexandrov Do better then. Look, just because a lyrics doesnt have a... tottaly reasonable meaning... doesnt mean that it doesnt have a meaning at all. Sometimes you have just to interpretate. Sorry if I wrote some nonsense gramatically, potato english here without a proper translator.

I thought that if the lyrics tell, verbatim, the story of a girl who (probably) suffered sexual abuse in 1995, who now works as an exotic dancer who became addicted to cocaine to try to get away from bad memories and remember the good old days meant it was a song with meaning that did not need to interpret anything ...

PS: Potato english too

Yup it's someone who's struggling in life and use drugs to escape reality.. the lyrics are fine... the music is awesome!

For sure you can do better, you are English they are French lol

I got this song stuck in my head

She's been dancing in a topless bar
And she's doing well so far
She is working to earn her own dollar
Cause the fortune teller didn't talk about stars

[Chorus:]
She has black and white eyes
A mind full of vintage squibs
She has black and white eyes
A mind full of cheering lives

She needs something
To keep her feet on the ground
Cause when she's flying around
She never wants to come back down
She lost her smile in '95
When she woke up on the back seat of a studded car

[Chorus]

'think I lost her at 24
When she started to lock herself up behind the bathroom door

All along the white line
She can travel back in time
All along the white line
[x2]

I'm on my way looking up today
Never mind if it could be worthing
Tuesday flies away

sinkanesle oh i always hear it as "ima fool of" it makes alot more sense now lol.

Chorus correction:

A mind full of vintage skies
A mouth full of jeering lies.

Ending correction:

Never mind if it could be worse
Until they fly away

These make a lot more sense.

Bill Bumbleton I thought it was "vintage scars"

All along the white line - she can travel back in time

Remind anyone else of the spiral line in the top left of Life is Strange when Max rewinds time?

CamBen Omg,Could This Be In LiS S2?

LOL it's about someone having cocaine lol

@Kronos Shirogane no, but yes?,it wouldn't make sense tho because in LIS2 the kid has gravity powers

Nah it's about getting high off drugs

How are you always top comment

syd matters vous etes des génies vos musiques font juste vibrer

Sur ce titre j'ai revé avec la plus jolie fille que la terre ait porté. TORTILLON DE WALGRAVE STREET. bisou MISS Amely.

I love this song.

This song gives me goosebumps.. it is amazing ❤

Wow, this is stunning. I came from the song "To all of you" and when I listened to this I was like: Man, I heard this fricking song somewhere back ago, it's so beautiful and I'm so glad to listen to it again..." But now that I know way more english than back then I just can't explain how much does this music fit with Life is strange, especially the ending. I'm pretty sure this will be the ending song so far.

Still gotta work on your english then dude :^)

This song got an atmosphere that will engulf you everytime you hear it,amazing

Syd, I love you dude

Is a band.

♥_♥

Life is strange end song?

@Combocookie should be! c:

+Combocookie is Obstacles

+Combocookie noooo stop linking it to Life is Strange. The game was surely beautiful, but this song has a story of it's own. Though it might seem otherwise, they're in whole different Universes.

+Combocookie No, is Obstacles or the Song's for other Final is Foals - Spanish Sahara

Fan-bloody-tastic!

Somos indies javier

"She can travel back in time..." Was all of your music inspiration for the plot of Life is Strange? Every song I'm listening to would just fit so well in that world. (ofcourse this one has a fairly different story behind it but it still somewhat fits) It's annoying I didn't find you guys before the game though, really loving every song. :D

Nothing to do with life is strange!

To me, the song sounds like it's about a girl going through horrible things, but the people in her life see her as she used to be, as stated in the chorus.

It was a guy alone at the time this song (and first album) was released! It became a band at a latter time...

I know your comment is 3 years old but if you payed attention "to all of you" and "obstacles" (and maybe some other songs from syd matters) are used in the life is strange game

@Fischi Vlogs the lead guitarist/singer of the band did the soundtrack for the first game. So he put in those two songs as a nod to Syd Matters
