[Chorus 1]
I've been seeing things, I've been seeing things
Don't have answers but I've got lots of questions

[Verse 1]
Car pulls up, someone gets out
Hands someone else a violin case
I'm trying not to let them see me looking at them
But I'm pretty sure there was a doll inside
Keep your eyes peeled and you'll see stuff
Which at first seems like unimportant irrelevant things

[Verse 2]
Can't just ask some perfect stranger
What are you hiding in your violin case
Shadow them at a distance instead
Try to get inside their head

[Verse 3]
Where'd they go now? I got distracted (Where'd they go now? I got distracted)
They gave me the slip, wearing a disguise (They gave me the slip, wearing a disguise)
That lady must have ditched the case (That lady must have ditched the case)
Hid the doll, what's she up to now? (Hid the doll, what's she up to now?)

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Trail went cold by the airport road
Watching them stack containers in rows
Seagulls, helicopter, wind blown trash
Something doesn't add up

[Chorus 2]
I've been seeing things, I've been seeing things
No one asked but I'm paying all kinds of attention

[Verse 5]
Later I'm watching the news report
Camera pans across a crime scene
Unremarked upon detail: empty violin case
Okay, maybe not the same case; different material, different color
Still you have to wonder
Am I the only one who knows?

[Chorus 3]
I've been seeing things, I've been seeing things
I've been seeing things, I've been seeing things

[Instrumental Outro]
