Safe and Sound Lyrics

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 heard 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
till the clocks run down
When your looks 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
till the clocks run down
When your looks 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
