Discover the story of the song > Indigo Eyes – Peter Murphy

The protagonist is feeling lost and confused, like he's been through a fire. He's looking for something, but he feels blocked by a black tree. He hears someone singing and asking for light, and wonders why he can't seem to find it too. Despite feeling like he's been hurt, he's not evil, just disconnected. He looks out with his soft grey indigo eyes, hoping to find a way forward.
