lyrics

Another one gone today. It happens all the time, now.
Nobody's surprised now. They're dropping like they're flies now.
But don't you find it disconcerting?
After all, knowing what you've done, you're likely to be hurting.

Watch out, you're being watched now as you skulk along the street
There was once a time when you controlled the end you'd meet
Depending on the mistakes etched into your yesterday
It's a matter of time 'til it's time for you to pay

Tell me, won't you, what's your name?
Hey, why won't you show your face?

There's a reason, there's a rhyme and in the back of your mind
You know if you're in danger from the days you left behind
You can run and you can hide and you can lock yourself inside
There's nothing you can do once you have been identified.

Watch out, you're being watched now as you skulk along the street
You are not in control of the end you're going to meet
Somebody remembers your misdeeds of yesterday
Involuntary atonement is just forty seconds away

You could try to win this game
You won't get far -- it's too late

Walking through the streets like any one of us
Deliberately mundane so as not to cause a fuss
On your trains, your streets, your roads, with you on the bus
Raining judgement, not from above, but more like from next door.

Watch out, you're being watched now as you skulk along the street
You are not in control of the end you're going to meet
Somebody remembers your misdeeds of yesterday
Involuntary atonement is just forty seconds away

Watch out, you're being watched now in the plans for your defeat
There is nothing left but to fall down from on your feet
The last thing you ever know will take your breath away
You look into a pair of eyes that almost seem to say

You're nothing more than a name and a face
Scrawled onto a notebook's page
