Starwatcher Lyrics
Starwatcher, starwatcher in the night
Starwatcher, starwatcher bend the light
There's a rider on the road
There's calamity awaiting to unfold
There is poison in the well
There's the arbor of a distant ringing bell
It's says: hold, hold, hold your ground
Skywatcher, skywatcher rules the day
Skywatcher, skywatcher cruel and fey
There are figures on the shore
At the laundromat, they're whispering of war
There a lady on the stairs
All a-shambling with thistles in her hair
Singing: hold, hold, hold your ground
Hold, hold, hold your ground
Starwatcher, starwatcher in the night
Starwatcher, starwatcher bend the light
There's calamity awaiting to unfold
There is poison in the well
There's the arbor of a distant ringing bell
It's says: hold, hold, hold your ground
Skywatcher, skywatcher cruel and fey
At the laundromat, they're whispering of war
There a lady on the stairs
All a-shambling with thistles in her hair
Singing: hold, hold, hold your ground
Hold, hold, hold your ground

I would guess this is another anti-Trump song. The narrator is waiting for the apocalypse to happen.
@cbingham And all they had to do was wait and watch Biden mess it up and put us all inharms way in, what, 3 weeks. Right, Go Joe, Go. (Sorry, I mean Miss Harris) Remeber son, you get what you pay (or vote for)

I feel like this could be titled: The Ballad Of A Paranoid Person.
