Girl Lyrics

I saw her, yeah I saw her with her black tongue tied
Round the roses
Fist pounding on a vending machine
Toy diamond ring stuck on her finger
With a noose she can hang from the sun
And put it out with her dark sunglasses
Walking crooked down the beach
She spits on the sand where their bones are bleaching
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye
She doesn't even know what's wrong
And I know I'm gonna make her die
Take her where her soul belongs
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye
Nothing that I wouldn't try

My sun-eyed girl
My sun-eyed girl

I saw her, yeah I saw her with her hands tied back
And her rags were burning
Crawling out from a land filled life
Scrawlin' her name upon the ceiling
Throw a coin in a fountain of dust
White noise, her ears are ringing
Got a ticket for a midnight hanging
Throw a bullet from a freight train leaving
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye
She doesn't even know what's wrong
And I know I'm gonna make her die
Take her where her soul belongs
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye
Nothing that I would not try

My sun-eyed girl

What is the Meaning of Girl?

This enigmatic track by Beck delves into themes of obsession, control, and the dark allure of a troubled individual. The lyrics paint vivid imagery of a girl with a mysterious and rebellious nature, symbolized by her "black tongue tied round the roses" and "dark sunglasses." The narrator is captivated by her destructive tendencies and chaotic life, expressing a desire to possess and ultimately destroy her. Lines like "I know I'm gonna make her die" suggest a metaphorical death or transformation, taking her to where "her soul belongs." The repeated reference to stealing her eye implies an intense fixation on seeing through her perspective or claiming her essence. This song explores the complexities of fascination with someone who embodies both light and darkness. #Obsession #DarkAllure
