lyrics

Nowhere's safe to be no more the wall's are closing in.
Make your plans for tomorrow but leave it where it is.
Priorotize your shelter, store away a first aid kit.
Can never be too careful.
It's good to be prepared.
One foot in the real world.
Another on the hills.

Nowhere's safe to be no more the days are growing dim.
Through down your agenda, pick up a conversation.
Open ended never ending spiral chattering.
Without fear of judgement.
Without censorship.
You know some thing I don't.
If you're right we both win.

No where's safe to be no more the night is dark and frail.
Someone told me once don't try because to try might fail.
Go ahead just do it, define your own success.
No one's on their way to.
Save your from yourself.
Only you can do that.
Ain't that fucking swell?

Nowhere's safe to be no more the wind is wild & still.
Pharmacies have got your mind, television brain.
Paddy's got your money, the banks have got your house.
Facebook's got your story.
Tell it how it is.
Part the picture only.
Is what's presented.

Nowhere's safe to be no more except your centred soul.
What Jung described as wholeness Buddha phrased liberation.
Christ and his salvation how could all of them be wrong?
Something must be in there.
Something great and strong.
Something so significant.
It brings hope to this song.
It brings hope to this hopeless song.
