Safe Here

You catch me as I stumble
Across the street
We’re laughing
The traffic lights spinning
Our fingers meet
Collapse into you
A park bench for a bed
It’s been a while
And I hold up your head
We’re safe here
I missed the way you bled
Safe here
As if you never fled
Safe here
We can still pretend
We’re safe here
My best friend
Under a dripping sky
Your face crumbles against mine
Words we could never find
Your lips are just like mine
Too soft to be a man’s
(so right)
But you still don’t understand
Too soft to be a man’s
(so right)
But you still don’t understand
My insides screaming out
I get in the taxi anyway
My nose against your neck
As the world around us breaks
Rain streaks on the glass
And I gulp down every second
The roads begin to flood
And to you my body beckons
We’re safe here
I missed the way you bled
Safe here
As if you never fled
Safe here
We can still pretend
We’re safe here
My best friend
Under a dripping sky
Your face crumbles against mine
Words we could never find
Your lips are just like mine
Too soft to be a man’s
(Too soft to be a man’s)
But you still don’t understand
Too soft to be a man’s
(so right)
But you still don’t understand
