[Intro — warped feedback, guitar notes repeating slightly out of time] I can see you. You can't see me. I can see you. You can't see— Me. [Verse 1] Two boys in a room with the lights turned low One says stay and the other says go One has a face that the other one knows One has a place that the other one goes There's a hole in the wall There's an eye in the hole There's a hand on the glass There's a crack in the soul I lean to the left You lean to the right I disappear When you step into the light [Refrain — clipped, obsessive] Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy Looking back Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy— [Hard stop] Black. [Verse 2 — angular guitar enters] Jim in the glass with his jaw set hard Will in the corner with a handful of cards Will sees Jim seeing what Will can't see Jim sees Will seeing what Jim might be One face stretches One face shrinks One face opens Its mouth and thinks If I look away Does the image stay? If I shut my eyes Does it look away? There's a room behind this room There's a door behind that door There's a boy behind the boy And he's watching something more [Chorus — forceful, rhythmic] One-way mirror I see through One-way mirror Who's seeing who? I watch you watching I watch you watch I watch you watching The watching stops— It doesn't stop. It doesn't stop. It doesn't— [Instrumental — jagged guitar figure repeats, drums lurch against it] [Verse 3 — voice close, almost whispered] There's a man on the other side With my father's hands There's a boy on the other side Who still understands There's a wrinkle in the silver There's a worm in the wood There's a version of me Who did everything good He got out. He got old. He got lost. He got told— Don't look in the mirror Don't look in the mirror Don't look in the— [Sudden feedback burst] I looked. [Refrain — faster, layers of distortion on the same voice] Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy Looking back Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy— Who's looking back? [Bridge — drums drop out, dissonant guitar scraping in a tight loop] Will watches Jim Watch Will watch Jim Jim watches Will Watch Jim watch Will The glass gets thin The room gets small The face in the mirror Isn't mine at all I see you You see me I see you You see— Me. [Full band crashes in] I see you You see me I see you You see— Me. [Verse 4 — pounding, breathless] Every angle has a witness Every witness has a face Every face is just a window Every window is a place Where the little boy is waiting Where the little boy is old Where the little boy is staring At the story he was told I put my hand against the silver Something puts its hand on mine I pull back It stays there One second behind. One second behind. One second— [Chorus — frantic, guitars cutting across the beat] One-way mirror I see through One-way mirror Who's seeing who? I watch you watching I watch you watch I watch you watching— The watching stops! [Everything cuts except a low, wavering guitar note] [Final refrain — quiet, rigid, unblinking] Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy Looking back Look at the boy Looking at the boy Looking at the boy— [Pause] There's no boy. [Feedback swells] There's no boy. There's no boy. There's no— [Final band hit] [Outro — one male voice, close and dry] I can see you. You can't see me. I can see you —
