we’re obsessed with anything that Ben Cooper creates, and while this song has a much darker meaning than how we mean it to each other, this song is one of our bff songs to each other. anywhere in the world each of us is, and any darkness or struggle each of us may face, we want each other to feel so safe, so sound, and know we each have a place in the world to call our hearts home.
Safe And Sound
Electric President
You took your hits with the bruises on the soles of your feet
Well who’s to say if they’re deserved? But you’re turning reckless now
I hear you saying through your teeth, that you’ll take them down first
But I saw you flinch, when the doctors got the claws in you
I saw your smile start to crack
It’s not so funny when you’re sunk and there ain’t nothing you can do
And your options are all dead ends
But there’s no way out
I’ll let you build your home with me ’til the clocks run down
When your luck’s run out
Call me and I will come and fix you get your feet on the ground
When there’s no way out
Call me and I will come and bury you all safe and sound
And all this time you’ve been drifting out with the tide my friend
But you can have what’s mine if it helps you stay afloat
If I close my eyes I can’t watch you drown anymore my friend
But I’ll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night
And the more we fight, the more we don’t get right
And the more we fight, the more we don’t get right
Heard they broke you
That you gave in
That you dropped
And the fight had left you
But don’t you worry
Makes no difference
From the start
Your options were all dead ends
When there’s no way out
I’ll let you build your home with me ’til the clocks run down
When your luck’s run out
Call me and I will come and fix you get your feet on the ground
When there’s no way out
Call me and I will come and bury you all safe and sound
