Well, I'm sure there's someone watching over me
At night while I'm sleeping
'Cause no harm ever seems to come to me
At night while I'm sleeping

They never let me wake to see
Who could be standing and guarding me
And when the morning comes
They never seem to stick around

I see demons and spies with cyclops eyes
At night while I'm sleeping
And girls with claws and blood-stained floors
At night while I'm sleeping

I see bullets of steel and they clip my heels
At night while I'm sleeping
And all the blades they spin and slit my skin
At night while I'm sleeping

And changed dark into light
But when I awoke
All this violence and pain was all right

I'm gonna wait alone under my sheets
And pretend to close my eyes
And I will wait until the sun comes up
I will wait all night

I don't care if you don't come and show yourself
'Cause I know you're always near me
And when it's dark again, I'll count to ten
And you'll be standing by me

I must have had a hundred fights
And changed dark into light
But when I awoke
All this violence and pain was all right

Well, I'm sure there's someone watching over me
At night while I'm sleeping
'Cause no harm ever seems to come to me
