I am the man that never smiles
Never laughs, never cries
Never sings or sobs
Never lives.

I am the man in the shadows
In the darkness
In the caves, the caverns
And in the silence

I am the man that never knows
Never understands
Never hears
The man in the dark

I am the waiting man
The watching
Ever present, ever ready
Simply waiting, waiting and watching

Some never see things the same way
Some never know my perspective
Some are hidden in their own worlds
And never see those of others

I am the man that sees it all
I am the man that knows
Knowing only the things he shouldn’t
Seeing only the grass that doesn’t grow.

I am the man on the wall
The watcher in the night
The protection of the people
The silent guard with only one small light

I am the man that you never see
I am the man that waits
I am the man that nobody knows
But I am also the man that is always there
