safety net

it's 1 am

you're probably sleeping

but i'm still up

my mind is vacant

these are the times you talk since then to me

you're numbing down

you're the voice that speaks

that brings me back to reality

you pick me up and push me on again

i could climb the highest mountain

with you by my side

i'd be dead if you were gone

whenever i fall

you're my safety net

the only reason i'm still in one piece

at my darkest hour

you radiate

light up the room and give me faith in life

it's just no safer than

than my safety net

five years ago

i never saw this coming

i was younger

i was dumb and

you were patient

waiting in the wings

i never thought

this is where we were headed

you could have left

but stayed instead

the only constant in this craziness

whenever i fall

you're my safety net

the only reason i'm still in one piece

at my darkest hour

you radiate

light up the room and give me faith in life

it's just no safer than

than my safety net

brave the mortal sin

this isn't through our hands

scatter in the wind and drift away

stars all go dim

your light still remains

steady through the change

just stay

you're always there

whenever i fall

you're my safety net

the only reason i'm still in one piece

at my darkest hour

you radiate

light up the room and give me faith in life

it's just no safer than

i still need you tonight

it's just no safer than

so be my safety net
