Stand guard over what is mine
I stand guard day and night
To watch over me and mine
Oh, I keep at a distance, it suits me just fine
Oh, I need no assistance, I stand guard all the time
Well, I meant it as a threat
It's a promise you can keep
Don't want no interference
Standing up in my sleep (oh, relax)
Stand guard over sea and land
I watch what they've done to this earth
I don't need no master plan
Oh, when all the consequences
Have far been outweighed by selfish reward
Oh, I feel an obligation
Sometimes I'm not quite sure what it's towards
Well, there's got to be some reason
That we all keep on living
More often than not we leave this earth
With at least two handfuls of misgiving
I stand guard over what is rightfully mine
Oh, I watch all this beauty disintegrating
To stand guard is not enough
Makes me feel like I'm waiting
For something horrendous to happen
But I stand guard over family and friends
It's all that I can do to stand here
And watch how this lifetime ends, yeah
Well, I've never felt as much as I feel for you now
I'm not about to stand here
And watch this whole world bring you down
Well, I see how it brings you down
And I will stand guard over you
Ooh, I will stand guard over you
I will stand guard over you
Well, I see how it brings you down
I see how it brings you down
I can see how it brings you down
See how it brings you down
I will stand guard over you
I will stand guard over you
