My Brightest Diamond - Safe House Lyrics

My Brightest Diamond Lyrics

"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 through
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 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
