Get Me Back to Safety

"Get Me Back to Safety"

Pick up your means
Your favorite intellect
Over the hill's back
Where the sun sets
From so far away
I hear the bombs
And I won't pray
For your expulsion

I know you wanted to die
Like I would love to now

This is what I feared
The fuse in my head
The dust in my eyes
Silence in my ears

I know you wanted to lie
Like I would love to now

This is what I feared
The fuse in my head
The dust in my eyes
Silence in my ears

Crawl back to safety: I'm half alive
Cover my skin and hope for sustain
Stop me from burning: stomach and chest
Empty my belly and hope for change

Watch the days go by
In the ruins she will cry
