lyrics

A stranger is wearing your clothes in the garden. A double is wearing your bones in the night, loving your woman with immigrant fingers, smiling, convincing when held to the light. He's mimicking you but the moon knows the truth: he's wearing your shoes but the walk isn't right.

A stranger is staring at you through the window, writing down words that you mouth in your sleep; tongue against glass as his pen crosses paper. Roles may be fought for but bribery is cheap. Hands just like yours push the hair from his forehead. Secrets like yours buried five miles deep.

Spell out his name but the letters escape you. Call out to me but I cannot be found. Call to yourself in your hour of darkness: the stranger will answer disjointed and proud, one eyebrow arched in your cold morning mirror. The silence is splitting. The echo is loud.
