The Watcher

As the watcher takes his place among the chaos

there is only one thing that you need to keep in mind

and when you find a place, where the spirit gets to nourish

feed upon the living, and the ones who cannot be defined

In an instance, you will notice how no one wears a smile

and how their long ago reaction caused someone some crisis

and if you settle closer to the ground, you will get to notice more

and see how some people follow without thinking the next one that arises

As they follow in the footsteps laid before them

they will go on to follow rules set down right, or wrong

the squeak you hear is someone's voice that is slowly fading

as they'll forget to learn the new words from the next inspiring song

As the watcher takes his notes, his face shows no expression

for to give something away right now would mean he's feeling

among the notes that end in his conclusions for what his eyes are seeing

are the words that you will read one day to aid you in your healing
