It's a kind of fancy way of saying "Bless you". "Bless your eyes" was, for some reason, a reasonably common expression at one time (like, 19th century; I'm pretty sure the phrase occurs at least once in either Tom Sawyer or Huckleberry Finn). I don't really know why the eyes in particular were singled out.

Get out The house is on fire this house is a jail, lit the fire While your eyes were dead in stare Your name is on the air Drop me down And if you never wanted to love Then burn the bridges down I'll breathe the ashes in, scream the words out And if you've ever wanted to die Then take the leap now Just close your eyes I'll let you down slow Beneath the water Is where I'm afraid She's waiting For anything She's waiting but not for me [2X] Beneath the water Is where she sleeps (Oh lord bless this thy hand grenade that with it thou may blow thy enemies to tiny bits in thy mercy)
