Lyrics
[verse]
Watching every move behind the tinted glass
Following the shadows as the strangers pass
Someone's always listening on the wire
Keeping tabs on every small desire
[chorus]
The watchman's here, he's always near
Keeping every secret pinned with fear
No use running, no use hiding out
He knows exactly what you're all about
[verse]
Cameras on the corner, eyes up in the wall
Nothing goes unnoticed, nothing stays too small
Even in the silence of your room
He's the whisper hiding in the gloom
[chorus]
The watchman's here, he's always near
Keeping every secret pinned with fear
No use running, no use hiding out
He knows exactly what you're all about
[bridge]
Some say freedom, some say control
Depends which side is telling the whole
But the file keeps growing every day
There's no such thing as far away
[chorus]
The watchman's here, he's always near
Keeping every secret pinned with fear
No use running, no use hiding out
He knows exactly what you're all about
