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
    repeat chorus
