C Am C
Safe, safe, enjoy your time feeling so safe,
Am Em
and treasure that smile on your face,
Am D G
okay? Because time will see that it's replaced in a while.
C Am C Am
So go on, smile. And handshakes all around- that's your style, and no one
Em Am D
would call it denial, for you're not even sure what's in store, Though it's
G
more.
F C G Am
Than you'll be able to take standing up straight. And it won't be okay.
F C G
And you won' be somebody who it's just happening to, because it's a trap
D
that you, and only you,
C Am C
have laid, laid with a towel up over your face,
Am Em
in your armchair, just lying in wait,
Am D G
waiting forces were gathering outside your door.
C Am C
They sharpened their knives, knives and smiled with no smiles in their eyes,
Am Em Am D G
a little bit larger in size and a little bit hungrier for that tiny prize.
F C G Am
And my mother once said "Son, remember this, no matter what someone did:
F C G Am
that they once were just a kid at breast and in bib, in blanket and crib.
F G C Am
So just reach inside yourself and find the part that still needs help,
F C G
find that part in someone else and you'll do good", so
D
I thought that I would.

C Am C
Hey I love you, it goes without saying.
Am Em
I would give you the world on a tray, though
Am
they're already tracing a
D G
line across your throat.
C
Far too late in the game you'll
Am
find that you have been
C Am Em
betrayed: propped up and pushed into your place.
Am
I could claim that it all would
D G C F
go great, but the reason I came is to say that it won't.
C F
You should know that it won't,
C F
You should know that it won't,
G D G C
You should know that it won't, and so, Phillip, let go.
