The hounds are running in the alley way below[00:00:00]
Underlining all her sins[00:00:08]
Across the alley[00:00:23]
There is a rented room[00:00:26]
There is a girl[00:00:29]
I watch I watch her[00:00:32]
Yellow cotton curtains[00:00:36]
The tiles are black and white[00:00:39]
Why are you home early[00:00:43]
Is this another one of those nights[00:00:45]
Straighten up the lilacs[00:00:56]
Straighten up your hair[00:01:00]
Over to the mirror[00:01:03]
What do you see there[00:01:05]
You know why he is living[00:01:09]
On a separate street away from you[00:01:12]
Usually you can forget[00:01:16]
But tonight the hounds they get to you[00:01:18]
The hounds are running in the alley way below[00:01:29]
Underlining all her sins[00:01:36]
Magnets in the mirror[00:01:50]
Usually you croon[00:01:54]
But tonight you are no beauty[00:01:56]
In your rented room[00:02:00]
He knows why he is living[00:02:03]
On a separate street away from you[00:02:05]
Usually he can forget[00:02:10]
But tonight the hounds they get to him[00:02:13]
The mirror shows a man in a chair[00:02:23]
She sees him sway[00:02:26]
He's falling to the floor[00:02:28]
His lines they crack away[00:02:30]
Who is this man[00:02:32]
You know him you know him you know him[00:02:35]
His being is your being[00:02:42]
His scent is on your skin[00:02:47]
His mind is on your mind[00:02:52]
His breathing is your breathing[00:02:57]
So she goes to her own chair[00:03:02]
I see her sway[00:03:05]
She's falling to the floor[00:03:07]
Her lines they crack away[00:03:09]
She shatters on the tiles[00:03:11]
Like the mirror that she shatters[00:03:14]
Like the mirror that she shadows[00:03:16]
The street it's night it's dark[00:03:22]
I cannot see too well[00:03:25]
But a fog descended on her room[00:03:28]
That much I can tell[00:03:31]
And every drop of water[00:03:34]
Drew salts across her soul[00:03:37]
Lord[00:03:40]
And every bead of water[00:03:41]
Made the beaded bodies roll[00:03:43]
A cat stopped by to listen[00:03:55]
'Til her breathing ceased to toil[00:03:58]
And on a separate street[00:04:02]
Well[00:04:04]
That man he ceased to moil[00:04:04]
Yellow dawn is yellowing[00:04:08]
Now I can see the girl[00:04:11]
Now I can see her face[00:04:15]
On the tiles I see her curled[00:04:17]
Breeze it blows the curtains[00:04:21]
Across the wayward tiles[00:04:24]
Across the sleeping ones[00:04:28]
On separate streets I have to smile[00:04:30]
They still will not understand[00:04:34]
Why they awaken so new[00:04:38]
But their sleep was close to[00:04:41]
Holy[00:04:43]
My darlings[00:04:45]
We're watching over you[00:04:52]
Across the alley[00:05:05]
There is a rented room[00:05:08]
There is a girl[00:05:12]
I watch I watch her[00:05:15]
I watch I watch her[00:05:19]
We watch we watch her[00:05:23]
