about
acoustic version of "you are safe now" off the full-length album "into the thinny"
lyrics
he sits on the edge of the bed, holding her hand
whispers everything is gonna be alright
she sighs deep, hangs up the phone, composes herself, the kids are home
guess she’ll have to speak to them tonight
and it was hard enough
to hear those words
have them heard
take them in...
disowned and thrown to the side of the road, where he’s most comfortable
even here he’s never really alone
he goes clubbing every night, she’s singing his song, but she’s not singing to him
you have become what you fear the most
and it was hard enough
to hear those words
have them heard
take them in
take his hand, hold on, you know you are alone in this room
and you are safe now
you are safe now with me
take his hand, hold on, you know it’s only us in this room
you are safe now, you are safe now with me
strange we never thought of what we really had
sad now that it’s lost we can’t ever feel that pain
someone said if you can never let it go
know it wasn’t something that you ever really loved
when’s it ever done?
he’s got a plan to end his life, but something stays his hand every night
could it be the fear now of her ghost?
'cause it was hard enough
to hear those words
have them heard
take them in
take his hand, hold on, you know
it’s only us in this room now, and you are safe now
you are safe now with me
take his hand, hold on, it’s only us, doll, in this room and
you are safe now
you are safe now with me
