Safe Harbour

The sky is dark the outlook's darker

It's started raining fire and brimstone in the hills

It's getting hard to find safe harbour

When those in charge don't care if they passively kill

As the world is getting smaller

The lines all blur between heaven and hell

And I find myself idly wishing

We could leave it all behind and just save ourselves

We could build a flowering garden

Far away from all this tyranny and pain

We'd be safe within that Eden

And we'd never let it hurt like this again

Just pick a star pack all the things we need

And then drive away without leaving a note

And I know it's just a stupid dream

But is there any harm in letting ourselves hope

When the hooded man stands brandishing the rope

So let's raise a toast to the world and then drink away our sorrows

Make a stand and demand there's a better day tomorrow

Because if we make it so it has to be

We'll build a better world apart for you and me

Close your eyes and just imagine

A world without all of this anger hate and greed

Dare to dream just what could happen

If everybody got what everybody needs

If everyone was just allowed to be

We could be anyone and anything we choose

And if there were those who still might disagree

And try to dictate who we are we'd just refuse

Because that hangman's still there brandishing that noose

So let's raise a toast to the world and then drink away our sorrows

Make a stand and demand there's a better day tomorrow

Because if not us then who will stand and fight

We'll build a better world apart for you and I

And fuck the rest
