Wow, it's been a really long time since I've updated here. I've had major writer's block for over a year, but I'm finally snapping myself out of it.
This song was inspired by the current events of the world (COVID-19) and the stressors that it is putting on people in regards to mental health (as that has been a struggle for me lately).
Safe House
Verse:
Mandated to be
Isolated as we
Don't trust no one
Don't trust nobody
Liberated and free
That's what we want to be
Can't trust no one
Can't trust yourself
Chorus:
Suddenly the ground has left our feet
And we're just not ready for flying
Cuz we haven't yet learned to spread our wings
Feeling like there's no point in trying
Staying sheltered here
In our safe house
Wanting to break away but you can't now
No you can't now
No you can't now
We're the kids too afraid to come out
Trying to find it but we don't know how
Give us hope now
Give us hope now
Can we make it out
Of the safe house
Verse:
Frustrated are we
Complicated to be
To be perfectly fine
But not fine at all
Ex-soldiers are we
In a battle incomplete
Going back to war
Trying not to fall
Chorus:
Suddenly the ground has left our feet
And we're just not ready for flying
Cuz we haven't yet learned to spread our wings
Feeling like there's no point in trying
Staying sheltered here
In our safe house
Wanting to break away but you can't now
No you can't now
No you can't now
We're the kids too afraid to come out
Trying to find it but we don't know how
Give us hope now
Give us hope now
Can we make it out
Of the safe house
Bridge:
Oh, oh, we'll find a way
Oh, oh, someday
Chorus:
Staying sheltered here
In our safe house
Wanting to break away but you can't now
No you can't now
No you can't now
We're the kids too afraid to come out
Trying to find it but we don't know how
Give us hope now
Give us hope now
Can we make it out
Of the safe house
Give us hope now
Give us hope now
Can we make it out
Of the safe house
