[deep dub chords slowly breathe through tape saturation] [whispered, extremely close] Don’t say it… Not here… [movement I sparse soulful lead] Two shadows One road Your silence My code Last train Gone by Blue-lit… Alibi [swung] No windows No names Cold pavement Warm rain One touch Then space But the city Kept your trace [Refrain - restrained, doubled whispers] Streetlights know But they don’t testify Blue-lit lies Our alibi Streetlights know Where we go When nobody... Nobody knows [half-time instrumental passage] [deep sub pulse, gated snare, vocal fragments drifting through plate reverb] [whisper layers] They know… They know… But they don’t testify… [Movement II - low and intimate] Your heartbeat Underground No promise No sound You vanished From my sight But your shadow Stayed all night [Refrain soulful lead with low harmony] Streetlights know But they don’t testify Blue-lit lies Our alibi Streetlights know Where we go When nobody Nobody knows [Post-Refrain] You disappear… But your shadow Won’t go [Expansive Bridge Breakdown pads open wide, long dub delays] If morning asks Where I have been I’ll say nowhere If daylight asks What I have seen You were never there No witness No proof Only rain On the roof Only blue In your eyes Only us And our alibi [long tape-delay throw] Alibi… Alibi… Alibi… [Final Refrain] Streetlights know [whisper] They know… But they don’t testify Blue-lit lies Our alibi Streetlights know Where we go When nobody... Nobody knows [Outro] [whispered directly into the mic] Blue light lies… So do I.
