When i moved to this neighborhood
I didn't know I'd have it so good
'Cause you give me a special treat
Every night before i fall asleep

The first time I didn't know
That this would be a regular show
I'm so scared that you'll find out
So i gotta tell you now

I see you in your room,
You're wearing your bedroom costume
You should really close the blinds
Who's fault is it, yours or mine?
(x2)

By now i know you know
But you never guess
How long I've watched you too
You think its just coincidence
When you get a little glimpse.

I'm watchin' you
Watchin' me
Watchin' you
Oh, watchin me

I see you in your room,
You're wearing your bedroom costume
You should really close the blinds
Who's fault is it, yours or mine?

Watchin' you
Watchin' me
Watchin' you
Watchin' me
Watchin' you
Watchin' me
Watchin' you
Oh, watchin' me

    Personally, this is what I feel this song is about.

    Someone has a neighbour who he 'likes' and notices she doesn't close her blinds, resulting in a 'peeping tom'. Little does he know that she knows and does the exact same thing!

    A bit like a pervy love song. It's great!

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
