Safe House

I never felt so safe

I had to have a sword and shield

I wanted to be strong in the world

For me and all the little pearls

Who never felt so safe

So we cussed and drank and huffed and cloaked our ache to toughen up

And hoped to fortify the right

To sleep in peace at night

We are gonna write new rules

We are gonna talk our troubles though

Play for keeps and find out how

Nobody will be shut out from the safe house

Safe house

And even I'm afraid

To try so hard and fail

I know that I am strong

But even I need someone to depend on

And show me what is safe

Name mistakes, run not from effects, listen up, restore respect

Please don't go away

If you stay

We are gonna write new rules

We are gonna talk our troubles through

Play for keeps and find out how

Nobody will be shut out from the safe house

Safe house

We are gonna write

We are gonna talk

We are gonna play

For keeps, for keeps, for keeps, for keeps

We are gonna write

We are gonna talk

And we are gonna play

For keeps, for keeps, for keeps, for keeps

At the safe house

Safe house
