"Safe to Run"

Esther Rose

Everybody's telling me good, good luck

I don't know what it means

Or have I got enough

What if I left the city behind

Just dreaming in the trees

Untie my mind

Flying down the highway in a borrowed car

I don't know who I am

Don't know who you are

But everybody's gotta be from someplace

I was born in the city

I was raised on faith

Oh, Julia, it was a false alarm

Don't leave the door open

Don't leave the light on

How does it feel to blow a kiss to the wind

And see where it lands

And see what you did?

Let the angels find me

I don't care

If the whiskey drowns me

In the poisoned air

You know there's no place

Safe to run

Angels surround

Ten miles down

Six miles in

Just to look at the Aspens shaking in the wind

Are we saving the earth one day at a time

Or are we just getting left behind?

Man, to be alive seems we just consume

Everything in sight becoming fuel

They're raising babies in their little home

Can I have it like that?

Am I bound to roam?

Let the angels find me

I don't care

If the whiskey drowns me

In the poisoned air

Fire surrounds me

From here to there

And the water's rising

Everywhere

You know there's no place

Safe to run

Angels surround

Everyone

Angels surround

Everyone
