I do think he is a security guard, but he works in a mental hospital or a home, over night, where this girl is staying. She's catatonic due to injury or mental illness, except every now and then she sings, and she beautiful. And he is taken with her. "To think that I lay next to you..." when I could be doing something else other than this job (a simple job in strip lights...maybe some sort of construvtion job). And when the day comes, his shift is up and he goes home...flickering I roam. I always picture him, on a closed circuit B&W monitor, walking the hallways, the picture kind of grainy...flickering I roam.
