TV Smith - Gary Gilmore's Eyes lyrics

I'm lying in the 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 I'm looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes 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 looked into a private ward I realize that I must be Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes 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 eyes receives the messages And sends them to the brain No guarantee the stimuli Must be perceived the same When looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes Looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes Gary don't need his eyes to see Gary and his eyes are parted company
