safe for now
|
i turn around now to turn
|
the television drone down down
|
cause in the night those same sounds
|
amplify in my life
|
they spill on the floor and out the front door
|
and when i finished the book the house shook.
|
|
hey babe when the walls shake
|
we'll be halfway to the bank
|
hey babe when the floors quake
|
we'll be shaking out the take.
|
|
safe for now
|
every damn day a hero of mine dies trying to fly
|
and they lie where their lovers lie
|
like everything's fine
|
so pound on the chest and hope for the best
|
and i'll give you that like
|
like we're off the hook.
|
|
hey babe when the walls shake
|
we'll be halfway to the bank
|
hey babe when the floors quake
|
we'll be shaking out the take.
|
hey babe are you awake?
|
|
safe for now
|
so be sure and save us now
|
safe for now
|
so be brave and save us now.
