Safe Places
Secrets are held in this forest that I live by
Even if we can't see them now
We'll find love or find ourselves or what we thought of at wishing wells
I just don't know how
Fallen leaves, wildflowers
Dancing trees that sway for hours
Will be our guides
This town is small and choked by noise
Pretty girls and swooning boys
But you're by my side
Come with me, I'll show you
The places I will go to
To be on my own
Surrounded only by quiet air
Away from whispers and blank eyed stares
You're better off alone
And I know, it can be scary sometimes
When all your worries are left behind
Maybe you just need a break now
If you feel like you might break down
These safe places aren't that hard to find
Birdsong and crickets chirping
Maybe this is what you've been searching for
An excuse to not think anymore
Let your mind rest and just take in
All the breaths you need to make it better
You know these feelings won't last forever
And even if you're not together
You're broken and you're feeling untethered
Let yourself go, and leave this cruel world behind
Just come with me, I'll show you
The places I will go to
To be on my own
Surrounded only by quiet air
Away from whispers and blank eyed stares
You're better off alone
And I know, it can be scary sometimes
But all your worries are left behind
And maybe you just need a break now
If you feel like you might break down
These safe places aren't that hard to find
Even if we can't see them now
We'll find love or find ourselves or what we thought of at wishing wells
I just don't know how
Fallen leaves, wildflowers
Dancing trees that sway for hours
Will be our guides
This town is small and choked by noise
Pretty girls and swooning boys
But you're by my side
Come with me, I'll show you
The places I will go to
To be on my own
Surrounded only by quiet air
Away from whispers and blank eyed stares
You're better off alone
And I know, it can be scary sometimes
When all your worries are left behind
Maybe you just need a break now
If you feel like you might break down
These safe places aren't that hard to find
Birdsong and crickets chirping
Maybe this is what you've been searching for
An excuse to not think anymore
Let your mind rest and just take in
All the breaths you need to make it better
You know these feelings won't last forever
And even if you're not together
You're broken and you're feeling untethered
Let yourself go, and leave this cruel world behind
Just come with me, I'll show you
The places I will go to
To be on my own
Surrounded only by quiet air
Away from whispers and blank eyed stares
You're better off alone
And I know, it can be scary sometimes
But all your worries are left behind
And maybe you just need a break now
If you feel like you might break down
These safe places aren't that hard to find
