Watching You Without Me

("What's that?")
("It's four, five, six, seven...")

You can't hear me.
You can't hear me.
You can't hear what I'm saying.
You can't hear what I'm saying to you.

You watch the clock
Move the slow hand.
I should have been home
Hours ago,
But I'm not here.
But I'm not here.

You can't hear me.
You can't hear me.
You can't feel me
Here in the room with you now.
You can't hear what I'm saying.
You don't hear what I'm saying, do you?

Can't let you know
What's been happening.
There's a ghost in our home,
Just watching you without me.
I'm not here.

("You don't hear me.") [backwards]

But I'm not here.
(You can't hear me.)
But I'm not here.
(You don't hear what I'm saying.)

"Zwoh-nikh-noh, zwoh-nikh-noh nee, et-nee nong-widz-aw nee noy."
"Zwoh-nikh-noh, zwoh-nikh-noh nee, et-nee nong-widz-aw nee noy."
"Zwoh-nikh-noh, zwoh-nikh-noh nee, et-nee nong-widz-aw nee noy."

(Don't ignore, don't ignore me, Let me in and I won't be long)?

"We see you here." [backwards]
"We see you here."
"We see you here."
"We see you here."
"We see you here."
"We see you here."
"We see you here."
"We see you here."

You don't hear me come in.

"Help me, baby! Help me, baby! Talk to me! Listen to me, baby
listen to me, listen to me! Talk to me! Help, please listen."

"I was here before, you talked to me, you said that you didn't
think it was too late to help me..." [when played backward]

("You can't hear me.") [backwards]

"Listen, baby! Listen to me, baby! Help me, help me, baby!
Talk to me! Talk to me! Please, baby, talk to me!"

("You can't hear me.") [backwards]
You won't hear me leaving.
