Song Meaning of “Never Trust the Hazel Eyed” by Hopes Die Last
The chorus of ‘Never Trust the Hazel Eyed’ speaks to an individual’s feelings of hurt and betrayal:
“Hazel eyed, you never told me / You never shared the pains you hold / You lied, you never told me / That you thirsted for the truth untold”
The narrator is reflecting on a failed relationship where they have been betrayed by a person they thought they could trust, who in this case has hays eyes. The narrator realizes that although he may have been fooled by the other person’s appearances, he still can’t help feeling the hurt of the betrayal and is warning people not to make the same mistake by trusting too easily based on no more than appearences.
The song is a reminder to be wary of people and to look beyond the surface when looking to build relationships. The idea of “Never Trust the Hazel Eyed” is to really look deeper into a person’s character and intentions, and to be wary when someone is not open and honest about their feelings.
