Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Lyndon would like to turn "Hellbound Eyes" into a fantastic thrashing production in a "Back in the USSR" kind of way. The eerie lyrics were inspired by a dream that Alex had about a wailing banshee. Typical of an Alex song in both its scary lyrics and its rock’n’roll sound.

Lyrics

HELLBOUND EYES



Took a while in my bed last night
To find sleep for my head and make me feel alright
When it came to my dead beat brain
I got this strange old lady calling out my name
Don’t know why she crashed my sleep
But her pale yellow skin made my own flesh creep
She must have been from my dark left side
Cause she froze me cold with her hellbound eyes

She said
I’ll be there when your luck runs out
When it all blows up I will drop by
I’ll be in the wings waiting for the final scene
I’ll be there to see the well run dry

I wish the night was the day’s relief
And that sleep was the way I could be released
But every time when I close my eyes
She’s right there in the black at the back of my mind
If she’s young she’s so damned good
That I feel for myself & the heat of my blood

Sometimes she comes in a sweet disguise
But she just can’t hide those hellbound eyes

She says
I’ll be there when your luck runs out....
