The Watchman Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
Atop the highest wall I give the call
Always watching, always keeping, on and on
When called upon to warn I sound the horn
Never sleeping, never tiring, dusk till dawn
From the edge of oblivion I keep this land
The earth may shake and the winds may come,
I am the watchman
But when the army came I was to blame
And so the people died, they screamed and cried
Always hiding, always shying, so it went
To the edge of oblivion I led this land
The earth it shook and the winds they came,
I am the watchman
With all this blood on my hands...
What a coward I've been...
Just to save myself...
Past the edge of oblivion I'll have to stand
And facing them all I shall confess
Never calling, never warning, kept silent
Always watching, always keeping, on and on
When called upon to warn I sound the horn
Never sleeping, never tiring, dusk till dawn
From the edge of oblivion I keep this land
The earth may shake and the winds may come,
I am the watchman
But when the army came I was to blame
And so the people died, they screamed and cried
Always hiding, always shying, so it went
To the edge of oblivion I led this land
The earth it shook and the winds they came,
I am the watchman
With all this blood on my hands...
What a coward I've been...
Just to save myself...
Past the edge of oblivion I'll have to stand
And facing them all I shall confess
