[Verse 1]
And I sat at the watch tower
And I didn’t do a thing
Blowing smoke to the air with a window open for you
And I saw it was late
And I dreamt to be alone
I was talking on the phone and it felt like something you’d do
Nothing comes from my calling
No one came to the cafeteria
Duck down as we bite another one

[Chorus]
Safe and sound from what is out there
Louder now, your favorite nightmare

[Verse 2]
Nevermind when I’m on top
Looking up from a low
There is always something there to keep me busy
In between now and then
No one knows where I’ve been
Counting sheep at the drugstore, waiting at the drive-in
And the music is changing
Coming to a dead stop
Your president won't catch me or my band
[Chorus]
Running cold, the winter water
Icy blue like frozen flowers
Safe and sound from what is out there
Louder now, your favorite nightmare
