《Millions of Eyes》是一首关于监控的偏执合成器流行冥想,写“被注视却无人看见”的悖论。三段歌词依次写公共摄像头、互联网与通讯数据,以及德国最近允许情报机构无缘由进入诊室的法律,勾勒出一个全面观察的世界。副歌却给出心理上的反转:看的人这么多,却没有人真正在看。歌曲说,被监视与被看见之间的这道鸿沟,正是抑郁滋生的土壤。
Cameras on every corner, watching day and night
Recording every movement, in and out of sight
Smile for the machine, it never blinks, never sleeps
We are free in theory, but somebody always keeps
The footage, the proof, the story of our day
Watched by millions of eyes, and yet we fade away
WhatsApp, mail and feed, every word is stored
Metadata and habits, kept like a record
They know where we go, who we love, what we fear
The private self uploaded, nothing's really here
Screens that watch us back, mirrors made of glass
The future knows our past before it comes to pass
And now they reach the practice, the room of trust
No warrant, no judge, no reason to adjust
The secret service peeking where the body speaks
Into the doctor's chamber, where the silence breaks
Without a cause they watch the wounded and the weak
No sacred room left, nowhere left to seek
Millions of eyes, but no one sees
Watched all day, but never seen
The deepest fear, the quiet ache
So much looking, but no one looks
And that's where the depression breaks
Look at me, look at me
Really look, not just the data, not the feed
See the human, not the file
Just for a moment, just a while
Millions of eyes, but no one sees...
No one sees...
No one sees...
Watched... but unseen...
