Baths – No Eyes Lyrics

Electronic

You take me and I'll take you
In the pit there in the smoke
I can never make out your face, or at least I can't remember it
I have no eyes, I have no love, I have no hope
And it is not a matter of
If you mean it
But it is only a matter of
Come and fuck me
And it is not a matter of
If you love it
But it is only a matter of
My fix
It gets all in the way, the pit in my throat
This isn't the adulthood I thought I wrote
And I never see your face, but I just might be okay
Because I have no eyes, I have no love, I have no hope
And it is not a matter of
If you need it
But it is only a matter of
Come and fuck me
And it is not a matter of
If you love me
But it is only a matter of
My fix

About This Song

"No Eyes" is a haunting exploration of emotional numbness and disconnection, depicting someone lost in cycles of meaningless physical encounters while struggling with depression and disillusionment. The lyrics convey a profound sense of emptiness-the narrator literally claims to have "no eyes, no love, no hope"-while describing relationships reduced to purely physical transactions that serve as temporary escape from inner pain. Musically, Baths crafts a dense, atmospheric soundscape that mirrors the psychological fog described in the lyrics, with Will Wiesenfeld's ethereal vocals floating over layers of distorted electronic textures and heavy, claustrophobic production. The song stands as one of the most brutally honest tracks on *Obsidian*, representing a stark departure from Baths' earlier, more optimistic work and showcasing how electronic music can effectively convey deep psychological turmoil. Its raw vulnerability and unflinching examination of mental health struggles make it a powerful statement about modern alienation and the ways people cope with emotional devastation.
