Panchiko - The eyes of Ibad
[Intro: OWAIN]
Take me to where they have dune seas
I don't care what they've done to me
[Pre-Chorus: OWAIN]
The girl in the sky, her blue in blue eyes
She's holding up the world
With her hands in her pockets constructing the prophets
That you try to ban
[Chorus: OWAIN]
So, how high must I go?
Before I know
That it's too far to fall?
So, how high must I go?
Before I know
That it's too far to fall?
[Bridge: OWAIN]
Wake me up, when we reach the sea
I don’t care, nothing is waking me
[Pre-Chorus: OWAIN]
We pray to the sky, our blue in blue eyes
We're holding up the world
With her hands in her pockets constructing the prophets
That you try to ban
[Chorus: OWAIN]
So, how high must I go?
Before I know
That it's too far to fall?
So, how high must I go?
Before I know
That it's too far to fall?
[Bridge: OWAIN]
Breaking the bones, 'cause I've known what I've known too long
Holding the phone, 'cause I've shown what I've shown, it's wrong
Breaking the bones, 'cause I've known what I've known too long
Holding the phone, 'cause I know what I know, it's wrong
[Outro: OWAIN]
How high?
How high?
“The Eyes of Ibad“ is a reference to the science fiction book series Dune. In it, there is a drug called spice, or melange, which gives people heightened awareness, greater vitality, a longer life span, and can sometimes unlock prescience. It is highly addictive, and those who are addicted’s eyes are completely tinted blue, called “blue in blue,” or “The Eyes of Ibad.” It is also the cornerstone for the birth of a new religion. In this song, the singer is likely on a hallucinogenic trip that is spiritual in nature.
