The song "Eyes Changing Colour" by Justin Nozuka tells a story of a person who is deeply affected by someone they care about who is in a dangerous and desperate state. The lyrics describe a scene where this person's heart is pounding for more, likely indicating their desire for the situation to improve or for the person they care about to be safe. The line "She's on the floor, she's hardly breathing" suggests that the person they care about is in a dire condition, perhaps physically or emotionally. Despite this, the protagonist remains calm and struck by the words of this person, implying that they are listening intently and deeply affected by their words. The lyrics further portray the intensity of the situation with the line "Stop, her heart has betrayed, eyes fade to grey." This may suggest that the person they care about is succumbing to their struggles or losing hope. The repetition of "she is done feeding" at the end of this verse could imply that she can no longer sustain herself or continue in her current state. The chorus "Eyes changing color, realer than my dreams, blowing out the candle of eternity" speaks to the profound impact this person has on the protagonist. The changing color of their eyes could symbolize a transformation or a loss of innocence, while being "realer than my dreams" reflects the genuine emotional connection and intensity of the situation. "Blowing out the candle of eternity" could represent the extinguishing of hope or the ending of something eternal, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. Overall, "Eyes Changing Colour" conveys a story of a person witnessing and grappling with the pain and despair of someone they care about deeply, and the emotional impact it has on them.
