sgl - a lonely beholder lyrics
[verse 1]
sometimes you just want to get alone and mull about
all the things that you have done and this tower seems to tout me
i have found a place to rest in, hide from the hustle and relax
yeah, watching the fire ain’t what i’m the best in
but i think i can complete the task
what a cozy lookout tower, what a scenic view it offers
judging by what i have found out, loneliness is the only nodus
i believe that i can live here without city’s encumbering clutter
but i still regret the fact that i will not encounter others
though, i’ve a lass to converse with and it makes my job less nervous
who i talk to? there is no one here ‘cept critters, trees and herbals
anyway, i’ve got a work to do, so see you here next time
trust me, observation’s something i will practise for a while now
[chorus]
somewhere deep in the forest there’s a lonely beholder
and his task is to notice what got out o’ control there
in the middle of nowhere, alone with the calmness
since nature’s still dormant until the sundown
[verse 2]
my gaze follows the passing day
the blazing scarlet sunset
i could write a sonnet
though i’ve no spears to shake
i’m in the forest
but i am not a tourist
i keep my eyes on
the things you’ll never notice
lately i had to see a silhouette in the trees
he was staring at me from the top of the hill
sadly, i couldn’t reach him in time, so he fled
really, vanished away, like there was no one there
this is odd but i guess it’s quite common to witness
someone ambling along the long paths in the thiket
probably i’m overstating this instance
these were fleeting instants
so why should i think that
this man’s gonna stalk me…
yeah… my first days here it’s already stressful…
[chorus]
somewhere deep in the forest there’s a lonely beholder
and his task is to notice what got out o’ control there
could it be that he himself is under surveillance?
can this precarious complication worsen his paranoia?
[verse 3]
it’s hard to tell what is true and what’s not
ever since i found those notes
now every single tête+à+tête has a chance to be recorded
maybe in this moment someone’s auscultating, harkening, waiting
till i say anything wrong or maybe not, well i don’t know
do these reports even denote anything or they’re just a prank…
well, it’s not funny, to be frank
’cause i’s knocked down by someone’s fist
when i discovered that they’d listed
every line of our speeches
+n+lysed ’em, but the mystery’s
what’s the gist of all that happened?
[chorus]
somewhere deep in the forest where a lonely beholder
has to sit there and notice what got out o’ control there
what he faced in the woods undoubtedly altered his life
but he has things to do, he’s to look after his wife…
