I’ll Never Look In Their Eyes [Edit] is a tribute to all those who have faced the hell of growing up with undiagnosed autism or finding themselves somewhere on the autism spectrum without knowing it. It’s also dedicated to outsiders in general—the pain of navigating a world where neurotypical people, often unconsciously or consciously, form a silent consensus to avoid understanding those who are different. This song honors the sensitive and thoughtful, those who struggle to fit into a world often ruled by the "low-empathy" and the "self-assured."

I’ll Never Look In Their Eyes [Edit] is also for those who grew up with mentally ill parents who never sought help, forcing their children to absorb and take responsibility for their emotions—becoming codependent, perhaps psychologically abused, or worse. It speaks to the generational trauma and lifelong challenges that come from walking on eggshells around a dysfunctional parent.

This song is a call to break the taboo around mental health and demand a change in how society views those who are unwillingly made victims of others' psychological issues. Through its lyrics and emotional depth, I’ll Never Look In Their Eyes [Edit] urges us all to see beyond the façade and advocate for a more compassionate and understanding world.

[Verse]
I learned to smile, the way they do
But their laughter fades, and I’m left confused
Words are easy, but meanings hide
In the space between, where I reside

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do
But I’ll never look in their eyes
I blend right in, in the light of day
But inside, I'm lost in their lies

[Verse]
Their faces shift, but I can’t see
The lines they draw, weren't meant for me
I read the books, I know the rules
But in their world, I’m just a fool

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do
But I’ll never look in their eyes
I blend right in, in the light of day
But inside, I'm lost in their lies

[Verse]
I’m smart enough, to understand
But their silent codes, escape my hands
They say one thing, but mean another
Their hidden truths, I’ll never uncover

[Chorus]
I see the world, just like they do
But I’ll never look in their eyes
I blend right in, in the light of day
But inside, I'm lost in their lies

[Bridge]
Behind the mask, I wear so well
Is a heart that aches, a silent yell
They talk in circles, I walk a line
In a world of noise, where I’m defined

[Chorus]

[Outro]
I’m one of them, or so it seems
But the space between, is filled with dreams
I’ll keep on trying, to break through
But in their eyes, I’m never true

I’ll Never Look In Their Eyes [Edit]

Lyrics 

Drip drop by drip drop
You’re filling this hollow heart 

Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart
Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart

Hand over my eyes
I can't even look
You finish these pages in this empty book

Hand over my eyes
I can't even look
You finish these pages in this empty book

Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart
Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart
Pages in this empty book

Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart
Drip drop by drip drop
You're filling this hollow heart

I hear people say
I'm a fallen boy - a falling boy
But they don't know what you're doing
To make this all ok

Finish these pages in this empty book

Hollow Heart

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
