lyrics

Stay away from the window
Stay away from the door
There´s a shadow on the landing
Silhouetted against the floor

And it doesn´t move at all

They hide behind their curtains
They creep along the corridors
Haunt the corners of this place
They lurk behind the spy-hole
A grim glare finds a focus on a fractured face

Goggle-eyed cyclops with gossiping slime-gobs is branding your name
Goat-like laughter from goitrous necks
Guffaw congeals in the fevered brain
The self-righteous and poisonious finger points to blame
You´re namelessly stained

And I can´t get no wink of sleep at all
I hear their whisper break these walls
Can´t overhear their wicked lies
Can´t recognise the hidden spies

Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by distant eyes

Portcullis is shut
The bridges are burning - but
From my towers I see the foe has fortified
My sweet sweet home is really a castle
A fortress that lies besieged

And I can´t get no wink of sleep at all
I hear their whisper break these walls
Can´t overhear their wicked lies
Can´t recognise the hidden spies

Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by their distant eyes
Watched on by distant eyes

No light
No motion
No touch
No sound

I can´t live underground

Thy home is thy castle
Blessed by unearthly hands
Be thy doors and windows bolted
Every man is meant an island
