I stand alone and watch the clock I only wait for it to stop And in the room locked up inside me The cutout magazines remind me I sit and wait alone in my room
And in my room against the wall There is picture very small A photograph I took some years ago It shows a picture of the room I know I sit and wait alone in my room
[Chorus:] The walls are white and in the night The room is lit by electric light
I stand and watch the clock I only wait for it to stop The doors are shut and all the windows lock The only sound is from the clock I sit and wait alone in my room
