Watcher

Story Behind The Song

I *was* this wallflower for MANY years. I wrote this song about all the people I saw, that didn't seem to see me, as I was "holding up the wall" at my favorite bar. It's amazing what people will say right next to you when they don't think you're listenin

Lyrics

"WATCHER"

INTRO
Yeah...Yeah...Yeah..

VERSE
I am the one you didn't see when you walked by.
I am the one you will replace within your mind.
You are the one that I had noticed from the start.
You are the one that I assigned a starring part.

CHORUS
I am the Watcher... I'm seein' through.
I am the dreamer... Am I dreamin' you?
I am the fly on the wall. I see the truth.
I am the Watcher... I'm watchin' you.
Yeah...Yeah...Yeah..

VERSE
I see you talkin' with the blonde girl at the bar.
I see you walkin' in the dark out to her car.
You look right through me, it's as if I wasn't there.
If you only knew how much I know of your affairs...

CHORUS
I am the Watcher... I'm seein' through.
I am the dreamer... Am I dreamin' you?
I am the fly on the wall. I see the truth.
I am the Watcher... I'm watchin'...

BRIDGE
You walk around us... talk on by...
all these soundless... thinking flies...

VERSE
I've seen so many others. I guess I know it all.
I've caught so many lovers perched here on my wall.
You keep your blinders on, 'cause ignorance is bliss.
I'll keep recording all the evidence you miss...

CHORUS
I am the Watcher... I'm seein' through.
I am the dreamer... Am I dreamin' you?
I am the fly on the wall. I see the truth.
I am the Watcher... I'm watchin' you.
Yeah...Yeah...Yeah..
