Safe Alone

It plays like a song and it reads just like a book, it’s an old line
You can watch it in a movie you can even play the part, it’s an old line

Brush off the dusty page, undo the lock that opens the cage
Put the child to rest, facing the greatest test

What’cha gonna do when it all goes under?
Where you gonna be when it all falls down?
Who you gonna call when it starts to thunder
Where you gonna be when it hits the ground?
(No one’s safe alone)

The long way the short way the easy way thе hard way
It’s all the same
Your tied up in a knot, it’s thе Gordian you’ve got
Tell me who’s to blame

Something that you once heard, one day they told you back in your old school
Did it hit the mark? Was it light or dark?

What’cha gonna do when it all comes crashing?
Where you gonna be when it all falls down?
Are you gonna run when the ball starts smashing?
Where you gonna be when it hits the ground?

Turning as hard as a stone, you’re feeling as cold as ice
Nothing can penetrate through, you’re tightening up the vise
But Love still waits for you

Brush off the dusty page, undo the lock that opens the cage
Put the child to bed, facing the thing you dread
