Watching You Watching Me
London Elektricity Lyrics

Watching you, watching me, watching them, watching we, can't you see them?
We are all being watched, but are you aware of it? Can't you see the watchers?

Watching you, watching me, watching them, watch your step, can't you say?
We should be cautious about our actions and words, as we are being watched. Can't you speak carefully?

Don't you see them? Or is it me on my own
Are you not aware of the watchers, or is it just me who feels their presence?

Is it my imagination or my paranoid zone?
Am I imagining their presence, or is it just my paranoid thoughts?

Is it the world we live in or the land that we roam?
Is it because of the world we live in, or the places we go to?

Yeah they're watching, I think they've gone and tapped my phone
The watchers are definitely monitoring me, I suspect they have even tapped my phone.

Like damn! What am I gonna do - these locks I can't break it
I feel trapped and helpless, I don't know how to break free from the watcher's grip.

My freedom they will take it - if I run, will I make it?
The watchers will take away my freedom, and I'm not sure if I can escape from them by running.

To somewhere that's far away
I need to go somewhere far away to escape from the watchers.

Gonna find out who got locked, gonna find out who got popped
I will investigate and find out who has been caught by the watchers, and who has been arrested.

Gonna find out who and when, gonna find out who got what
I will also find out who and when the watchers have targeted, and what they have gained from it.

Gonna find and get these names, gonna put me in the frame
I will try to uncover the identities of those involved in watching us, but it may incriminate myself.

I need to pack my shit quick if I'm gonna make this plane
I need to pack my belongings hurriedly if I want to catch the next flight out of here.

Ain't gon' stick around for this shit - cos that is long
I'm not going to stay around and endure this situation any longer, it's too much.

Am I guilty? No, no way
I know I have done nothing wrong, so I'm not guilty of anything.

Where I'm gone? Far, far away
I'm going to a faraway place where I hope the watchers won't find me.

I ain't gonna tell you that life's alright
I won't pretend that everything is fine in life.

Just because I'm on a beach and it's a full moon tonight
Even though I'm on a beautiful beach with a full moon, it doesn't mean that everything is alright.

I ain't gonna tell you that life's all good
Life isn't all good, and I won't try to make it seem that way.

If the truth be told – it's not how it should
If we are honest, life isn't the way it should be.

In fact it's bad – I feel the opposite of sad
In reality, life is bad, and I don't even feel sad, but rather the opposite emotion.

I feel insane in the brain forward slash fucking mad
I feel like I'm losing my mind, completely crazy and mad.

Am I losing the plot? Am I cream of the crop? Am I bottom of the top?
Am I losing my sanity? Am I successful or failing in life? These thoughts race in my mind.

Is this weed? Or is this rock?
I wonder if this is marijuana or a harder drug.

I don't know – I just feel real strange
I don't know what's going on, but I feel really strange.

Feel like you're watching me, ain't a damn thing changed…
I sense that you're still watching me, and nothing has changed in the situation.

For five years, I've felt like Dr. Richard Kimble
For the past five years, I feel like I'm in 'The Fugitive' movie, playing the role of Dr. Kimble.

Now let me break it down, now let me make this simple, I'm like…
Let me explain it more simply, I feel like this:

Day after day, month after year
The same thing happens, day in and day out, month after month, year after year.

Will this paranoid feeling disappear?
I hope that this feeling of paranoia will go away.

Why are they watching, increasing my fear?
Why are they monitoring us, and why is my fear increasing?

I need to stop these voices whispering in my ear
I need to silence the voices that I hear in my head, raising suspicions and paranoia.

They watching you - They watching me
The watchers are observing you and me.

They watching us - They watching we
They are watching all of us, and are always observing our actions.

Watch the way we live, watch the way we be
They observe the way we live our lives, and the way we behave.

Yeah they're watching - It's all eyes on me
The watchers are monitoring everything I do, it's like all-seeing eyes on me.

Now can't you see them? They are snakes in the grass
Can't you see the watchers? They are hiding like snakes in the grass.

Us or them? Now who's gonna last?
Who will win the battle, us or the watchers? Who will survive in the end?

All of we are one and we need to see through the masks
All of us are part of one community, and we have to see beyond the disguise of the watchers.

I'm paranoid these droids are gonna try and take charge…
I'm scared that these machines will take control and command us in the future.

Of my mission, ain't letting that happen, I put my foot to the floor
No way will I let them disrupt my plan, I will go ahead with all my might and strength.

Ain't gonna take it no more, you need to watch you step or
I won't tolerate this situation any longer. You should be careful of your actions too,

I'm gonna re-assess, yeah the sky turns red
I will re-evaluate the situation and make new plans. The sky turns red, indicating the beginning of a new era.

I feel your eyes burning in the back of my head
I sense the piercing gaze of the watchers behind me, making me feel uncomfortable.

Ain't gonna let you take that, ain't gonna let you take this
I won't let you take away my belongings and freedom, without a fight.

Ain't gonna let you take what you want
You can't take whatever you want from me, I won't allow it.

Or let you take the piss - no way!
I won't let you mock me or treat me unfairly, there's no way I will allow it.
