Every Breath You Take
Unseen Obsession: A Poetic Vigil
Lyrics
Every breath you take
Intense surveillance or monitoring of someone's actions, even their basic functions like breathing.
Every move you make
Observation of every action or decision made by the person.
Every bond you break
Noticing any breaking or severing of connections or commitments.
Every step you take
Closely observing every movement or progress.
I'll be watching you
Stating the commitment to continual observation and vigilance.
Every single day
Reiteration of constant observation and attention on a daily basis.
Every word you say
Listening to and noting every spoken word.
Every game you play
Monitoring all activities or strategies employed.
Every night you stay
Acknowledging the presence during the person's time spent at night or away from the observer.
I'll be watching you
Reaffirmation of the continuous watchfulness.
O can't you see
Expressing a possessive sentiment towards the person being watched.
You belong to me
Declaring a sense of ownership or entitlement over the person.
How my poor heart aches with every step you take
Feeling emotional pain with each action taken by the person.
Every move you make
Repeated emphasis on observing all movements or decisions made.
Every vow you break
Noting any breaking or disregarding of promises or commitments.
Every smile you fake
Recognizing insincerity or falseness in the person's expressions.
Every claim you stake
Being alert to any claims or assertions made by the person.
I'll be watching you
Continued assertion of the commitment to observe.
Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
Expressing a feeling of being lost or without direction since the person's departure.
I dream at night I can only see your face
Yearning for the person, even in dreams where their presence is vivid.
I look around but it's you I can't replace
Unable to find a replacement for the person, feeling their absence keenly.
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
Longing for the warmth and closeness of the person's embrace, feeling emotionally distant and cold without them.
I keep crying baby, baby please
Expressing distress and a plea for the person to return.
Every move you make
Reiteration of watching and monitoring every action.
Every vow you break
Observing any breaking of commitments or promises made.
Every smile you fake
Noticing insincere or false displays of happiness.
Every claim you stake
Remaining vigilant towards any claims or assertions made by the person.
I'll be watching you
Reaffirmation of the continuous watchfulness.
