    Glass Animals - Exxus (Official Audio)
    Lyrics
    When you see him look him in the eye
    Look him in the eye and he won’t dare to follow
    If you need to, hook him with your right
    Hook him with your right till he wiggles and wallows
    He sleeps atop a bag of raven’s legs
    Curled up rats napping by his head
    Takes his eye out with a ball point pen
    And makes nunchaku with his torn off legs
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone gone gone in the blink of my eye
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone gone gone in the blink of my eye
    Open your eyes choking on his breath
    Choking on his breath you grimace then smile
    Take a toke of his wet cigarette
    He picks your brains
    You stub it on his chest
    Slit his tongue with one fast hand
    Stuff his mouth with the salty sand
    Tie his arms with hair from his head
    And roll him round like a rusty can
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone gone gone in the blink of my eye
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone gone gone in the blink of my eye

      When you see him
      Look him in the eye, look him in the eye
      And he won't dare to follow
      If you need to
      Hook him with your eye, hook him with your eye
      Do your wiggles and wallows
      Sleep so tight but by a raven's legs
      Killed upright, sniffing by his head
      Takes his high with a bop on bed
      Makes it joggle with his torn off legs
      Wake up with a hatchet over your head
      You wake up with a hatchet over your head
      I can see you running
      I can see you running
      Gone in the blink of my eye
      Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
      I can see you running
      I can see you running
      Gone in the blink of my eye
      Gone, gone, gone in the blink of, blink of my eye
      Open your eyes, chocking on his bed
      Chocking on his bed, then grimace and smile
      Take a toll, he is with cigarettes
      He picks your brains, he's stomping on his chest
      Sit his tone with one fast hand
      Stuff his mouth with salty sand
      Tie his arms up from his head
      Rolling around like a rusty can
      Wake up with a hatchet over your head
      You wake up with a hatchet over your head
      I can see you running
      I can see you running
      Gone in the blink of my eye
      Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
      I can see you running
      I can see you running
      Gone in the blink of my eye
      Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my, blink of my eye.

    From Reddit
    “As with Psylla, Exxus is a genus of an insect, but this time an earthworm. Earthworms dig deep into the ground like we do to bury our dead, which is what the song is about. Earthworms also decompose the dead, and the word sounds oddly familiar to the word exit, but like with all B.Z. songs, we will probably never find out exactly what the word Exxus was actually intended to mean. The narrator of the song is death itself, the song portraying death as a character. He is taunting someone the entire song with lines like, "I can see you running," but never letting them forget that they can be, "Gone in the blink of (his) eye." There are also lines alluding to the character of death, like "You wake up with a hatched over your head," referring to the common presence of a scythe when death is portrayed as a character. Other visuals they add are ravens and rats, more common things to think of when you try to visualize death as a character. For the music video, they had stop-motion artist Rafael Bonilla Jr. make a stunning visual of the song.”

      Exxus, exit. Similar to Exodus, a departure. I feel this song is about himself, as if he's "taunting" himself but still understands he can die any day (im pretty sure the singer Dave struggled with opioid abuse)

      Well, I wrote this album around the time I was graduating from high school, and it took a while to record, because I was doing most of it myself. I'm wondering how Glass Animals can be touring when this album is my intellectual property, my creation, music and lyrics. I'm really pissed off. I bet if a band is touring using my songs they won't have any idea what type of instruments were used to record this. Once again, I am pissed off. I'm going to have to find a way to do something about this.

      I don't think that's fair; I've listened to all there albums on repeat - and every album feels different.
      And Dreamland is actually a solid Album - heat waves is only one song from that album -
      Domestic Bliss? Water falls? incredibly Loud?
      At the end of the day this band experiments with each album to convey an atmosphere.
      Guarantee there next album will have a totally different sound and style.

    When you see him
    Look him in the eye, look him in the eye
    And he won't dare to follow
    If you need to
    Hook him with your eye, hook him with your eye
    Do your wiggles and wallows
    Sleep so tight but by a raven's legs
    Killed upright, sniffing by his head
    Takes his high with a bop on bed
    Makes it joggle with his torn off legs
    *Wake up with a hatchet over your head
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head

    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my, blink of my eye.
    Open your eyes, chocking on his bed
    Chocking on his bed, then grimace and smile
    Take a toll, he is with cigarettes
    He picks your brains, he's stomping on his chest
    Sit his tone with one fast hand
    Stuff his mouth with salty sand
    Tie his arms up from his head
    Rolling around like a rusty can

    This makes me imagine 6 boys in a jungle running from a dark shadow. They all take separate paths and separate. Than each group up into groups of two each later on in the song. At the end, I imagine one of the two boys in the group protecting the other one, who is scared. I don't know why I thought of this, but I love this song. Glass Animals in general! So happy I found them! Heard them on a Pandora station in the car. The song was skipped, but I decided to remember the band and listen to them. So happy I did. I only heard 30 seconds of Black Mambo to get into them~ ❤

    When you see him
    Look him in the eye, look him in the eye
    And he won't dare to follow
    If you need to
    Hook him with your eye, hook him with your eye
    'Til he wiggles and wallows
    Sleeps atop a bag of raven's legs
    Curled up rats napping by his head
    Takes his eye out with a ball-point pen
    Makes nunchaku with his torn off legs
    Wake up with a hatchet over your head
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my-blink of my eye
    Open your eyes, choking on his breath
    Choking on his breath, then grimace and smile
    Take a toke of his wet cigarette
    He picks your brains, you stub it on his chest
    Slit his tongue with one fast hand
    Stuff his mouth with salty sand
    Tie his arms with hair from his head
    Roll him 'round like a rusty can
    Wake up with a hatchet over your head
    You wake up with a hatchet over your head
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my eye
    I can see you running
    I can see you running
    Gone in the blink of my eye
    Gone, gone, gone in the blink of my-blink of my-blink of my eye.

    What's the meaning of this song? I think i know but im not sure... i feel like the person singing is a serial killer and his victim is trying to get away. That's why he says "Wake up with a hatchet over your head... I can see you running, gone in the blink of MY eye..." Maybe it's obvious but idk... what i know forsure is that this song is gruesome O_O the beat is relaxing but the lyrics are so eerie

    • @chewierawr
      @chewierawr Před 9 lety +99

      I think it's more along the lines of a lost love. the person speaking is telling about an experience in which they suddenly are made aware that the person they love is holding a grudge("hatchet") or something similar ("over your head"). Their lover is starting to flirt with someone else ("if you need to hook him with your eye until he wiggles and wallows" "I can see you running") and it gets out of control. The person speaking loses the heart of their lover and they're "gone in the blink of my eye". It's made to sound like a murder attempt because it's a tragedy.

    in case u missed it, the meaning of this song is about death and how everyone cant escape from it. And about the holes and mushrooms: the process of decomposition,where fungi and bacteria will start ruining the corpse and dissolve all the nutrients. Thats why u also see those corpse images and gore views of human body in this clip.
