[verse 1]
G Cadd9 G
Someone took your truth and lied to it
Cadd9
Someone stole your youth, and tried to
G Cadd9 G
Expose your sweet, innocent soul too soon
G Cadd9 G
Like the shadow of a thief, breaking in every night,
Cadd9 G
A scene of sharp relief, every time you close your eyes
Cadd9 G
You still see it; it follows you
G D/F#
[chorus]
Cadd9 G
So you don't have to be quiet,
Cadd9 G
And you don't have to feel afraid,
Cadd9 G
This is not your war to fight,
D/F#
And you're not to blame
Cadd9 G
Cause I know you've been stumbling,
Cadd9 G
Searching for a place to hide and heal,
Cadd9 G D/F#
Somewhere you can rest, give yourself in to fear...
Cadd9 G
You're safe here, you're safe here.
G
[verse 2]

Someone took my rights and treated me wrong,

In silent ways they don't see
[chorus]
Cadd9 G
So we don't have to be quiet,
Cadd9 G
And we don't have to feel afraid,

And we're not to blame
Cadd9 G
Cause I know you've been stumbling,
Cadd9 G
Searching for a place to hide and heal,
Cadd9 G D/F#
Somewhere you can rest, give yourself in to fear...
