I'm surprised no one has said anything about the chorus.
"Where did you get those eyes?" Where does a person get any part of his body? We all develop inside of and are born from the bodies of women. These men got their eyes from their mothers and now use them to ogle women. "Where did you get those eyes?" How can you look at me like I'm nothing more than an object for your pleasure? How did you get to be this way? How can you watch me in my sad state of desperation and only think of yourself?
@crystaltokyo that may be a bit deep. The eyes could be the ones looking through the holes, or they could be her eyes that are filled with “dry tears.” Or they’re her eyes full of “sneering” contempt. So many ways to interpret it.
For me, the song reads like a shotgun blast of porn imagery. There’s snapshots of all these different contexts. I feel like she’s empathizing with whomever is mentioned in each situation and she sees them for who they are, and those with whom they deal.
