Stand Guard Lyrics
Stand guard over what is mineStand guard day and night to watch over me and mineI keep at a distance, it suits me just fineI need no assistance, I stand guard all the timeI meant it as a threatIt's a promise you can keepDon't want no interferenceStanding up in my sleepStand guard over sea and landI watch what they've done to this earth, I don't need no master planWhen all the consequences have far been outweighed by selfish rewardI feel an obligation sometimes I'm not quite sure what it's towardThere's got to be some reason that we all keep on livingMore often than not we leave this earthWith at least two handfuls of misgivingI stand guard over what is rightfully mineI watch all this beauty disintegratingTo stand guard is not enoughMakes me feel like I'm waiting for something horrendous to happenbut I stand guard over family and friendsIt's all that I can do to stand here and watch how this lifetime endsI've never felt as much as I feel for you nowI'm not about to stand here and watch this whole world bring you downI see how it brings you downBut I will stand guard for youI will stand guard over you
