The Watcher
Soul's Solitude: Unraveling the Watcher's Journey
Lyrics
What will become of the watcher
Questioning the future fate of the observer
Whatever will happen to his soul
Concern about what will happen to their soul
What will become of the watcher
Reiteration of uncertainty regarding the observer's future
When the band packs up
When the musical performance ends
When the lights go out
When the illumination ceases
When the band packs up and goes home
After the band leaves and returns home
Left him sitting at his table
Left alone at his table
He could no longer raise his cane
Unable to lift his cane anymore
All the people missed his message
People missed his communication or message
When the band packed up
When the musical group concluded their performance
When the lights went out
When the illumination fades
When the band packed up and went home
After the band concluded and left for home
His only friends lay in the ashtray
His only companions were cigarettes in the ashtray
Each night he'd call them out by name
Naming and possibly conversing with the cigarettes
Before him always sat the same glass
A glass always present in front of him
And the town folk thought him quite insane
The townspeople viewed him as mentally unstable
What will become of the watcher
Reiteration of the uncertain future of the observer
Will no one dig a grave for his soul
Questioning if anyone will give the observer a proper burial for their soul
Whatever will become of the watcher
Reiteration of concern about the observer's fate
When the lights go out
When the illumination ceases
When the lights go out
Repeated emphasis on the lights going out
When the band packs up and goes home
After the band finishes and leaves
