Perimeter Man - Coliseum

He’s out there somewhere

Eyes green in the moonlight, teeth ground to graveled bits

Pacing to and from, and forth and back now

Perimeter man drags his toe in the sand

Perimeter man breathes the swampy air

Perimeter man eyes the evil of night

…while we’re safe inside

He’s out there somewhere

He lives in the shadow, eyes trained for the darkness

Hidden by hanging moss, scanning every move — every sound now

Perimeter man reaches out his hand

Perimeter man dissolves into the fog

Perimeter man sees behind the glass

…he sees us all

He’s out there somewhere

He walks the line, night by night

He walks the line, inch by inch

He peers through the black of the night

He scans the grounds, and sees me

I try to rest myself, but he’s watching

He’s watching…

Call his name
