This song is about the problems that kids deal with as they grow up. The title, “Watch the Corners,” is something parents frequently have to tell their young children because they sometimes bump their heads on the corners of tables.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every morning came
I don't like that you can hide in
We expect the same
But I've no one to confide in
And I want you to be with us
And in time there's no forgiveness
And the plan was set in stone long ago
There's never not a time not to know
[Chorus]
Can I run, but you'll be there
Disappear it's never fair
It's like a stare
When I call to tell you no
Every action going slow
Can I whisper all alone
Can I find it far from home
There's a time to make you move
All at once the time flew
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Hey me watch the corners
Watch me because I know what you done
Hey me don't you know
Watch me because I'm all alone
