The Adverts - Gary Gilmore's Eyes lyrics

I'm lying in a hospital I'm pinned against the bed A stethoscope upon my heart A hand against my head They're peeling off the bandages I'm wincing in the light The nurse is looking anxious And she's quivering with fright Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes x4 The doctors are avoiding me My vision is confused I listen to my earphones And I catch the evening news A murderer's been k**ed And he donates his sight to science I'm locked into a private ward I realise that I must be Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes x4 I smash the light in anger Push my bed against the door I close my lids across the eyes And wish to see no more The eye receives the messages And sends them to the brain No guarantee the stimuli Must be perceived the same way Looking through Gary Gilmore´s eyes x4 Gary don´t need his eyes to see Gary and his eyes have parted company
