safe for now i turn around now to turn the television drone down down cause in the night those same sounds amplify in my life they spill on the floor and out the front door and when i finished the book the house shook. hey babe when the walls shake we'll be halfway to the bank hey babe when the floors quake we'll be shaking out the take. safe for now every damn day a hero of mine dies trying to fly and they lie where their lovers lie like everything's fine so pound on the chest and hope for the best and i'll give you that like like we're off the hook. hey babe when the walls shake we'll be halfway to the bank hey babe when the floors quake we'll be shaking out the take. hey babe are you awake? safe for now so be sure and save us now safe for now so be brave and save us now.
