Eyes Without A Face

Let me ask about "Eyes Without... "
I don't just to use senseless violence
Let me put it like that

"Eyes Without a Face" which you know I love
It's, it's a ballad, yes?
Yeah (I mean)
Do you think that that's (rock ballad) that's poetry for you
Yeah
No, not at all "Kiss Me Deadly" is a bit of a ballad
Well, I've done them before really "Hot in the City"
"It's So Cruel" is a ballad on my first solo album

There's something so dreamy though about this
I mean, it's really...
It's real late night (it's real romantic)
Yeah

Well, you know I was always into doing different things
And "Eyes Without a Face" is basically sort of a psychotic song
About people with no soul
And, and the sort of state of mind that you have
If you have no soul, which is a sort of nowhere

So um, we used a drum machine
So it's a constant mechanical beat, you know
Drummers just don't like play like drum machines
They don't, you know
And so, ah, it doesn't sound like a drum machine, but it is one
You know it's it's mechanical, it's psychotic, it's ill, sick
And, um, that's what's good about it
It's not just a sad song, it's a sick, sad song

And, uh, personally I think a lot of the emotions
That people have, have turned to sickness
And it's just one... it's just something about human beings, I mean
There's a lot of frustration and things in people
That ends up in some sort of illness
And that usually ends up in destruction of the person they dislike
And that's what "Eyes Without a Face" is, is
It's basically a murder song

It's pretty though
But that's the point, you know
Murder is dressed up sometimes in the prettiest ways, you know
I think, you know, the most dangerous things sometimes look pretty
You know, like you know, it's there are are always
These sealed caps to stop kids taking their father's pills, you know
'Cause the blue and yellow, and nice looking, you know,candy
And this, this sort of candy thing's about people, you know
And, uh, that's what "Eyes Without a Face" is sort of saying
It's dressed up as a nice little thing, but it's actually a, a sick song

That's what I like about it (me too)
That's why people moan about me, actually
'Cause they think I'm a sick so-and-so
Probably right, but I think, you know, it's the way of getting rid of it
Getting rid of the sickness, and, and sort of telling yourself
You've got to watch out that you don't, and I personally
Don't become a person with no soul
