Overtime nHome by nine nWatch TV to loosen up my mind nPay the bills nEarn a wage nJust enough to keep it all the same nSomehow life slips away nGood or bad it's just another day nOn my own in this world nSafe and sound nnBut I don't want to stare out the window nI don't want to stare all of my life nDon't want to be afraid to remember nWhat I might have dared nWhat could be mine nI don't want to stare out the window nI don't want to stare all of my life nAll of my lifennBack in my rebel phase nI stood out in all the normal ways nHeld a dying man's faith nThat my art would be my resume nBut that man passed away nRight or wrong it's not for me to say nHere at home in my room nSafe and sound nn'Cause I feel like there is nSomeone watching over me nAnd that something is nSupposed to happen now nIf it's all by design nKeep on watching nI won't let you down.
