| Grateful Dead – Eyes Of The World Lyrics

I interpret the eyes of the world part to be about how we as humans are a part of the earth just like trees. WE ARE NATURE. So we are the world, and since we are conscious and have eyes. We can "see" for the world, because really since we are the world, the world sees through us. |

My interpretation of this song is basically the same as you described. Its easy to become saddened by the concept that it will all end someday, yet this is just a distracting thought that keeps you from living. The girl is focused on the decaying aspect, so she tries to escape. But this costs her to miss all the beauty in the garden. ("She came dead" already) |

its a beautiful song that I always thought was kind of sad. the girl was trying to escape through the mirror(referring to the mirror as a window, meaning she is using the mirror as a window and staring into it), while not being able to appreciate the beauty around her(the various colors and flower of the beautiful garden) she instead is focused on how life will eventually come to an end. Recently these questions of life and death have been rolling around my brain, and I think the message is that death is also a beautiful part of life. And also that death is only one PART of life, so that means that there is so much more. (many PARTS). Its easy to become saddened by the concept that it will all end someday, yet this is just a distracting thought that keeps you from living. |
