| When all we needed was to talk things through
|
| This is the part where we learn that love is
|
| Not what we say but what we do
|
| This is my country
|
| This is your country too
|
| There are so many things we need to change
|
| It’d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
|
| It’d be too easy to let things stay the same
|
| Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| Am I needed here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| They convinced us that this was not our problem
|
| None of our concern
|
| And then they chiselled and chiselled untill everything we loved and everything
|
| we earned was taken away — we let them take it all away
|
| This is my country
|
| This is your country too
|
| There are so many things we need to change
|
| It’d be too easy to let it overwhelm us
|
| It’d be too easy to let things stay the same
|
| Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| Am I needed here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| While we stood and argued
|
| about the cost (of it)
|
| Look how we let it slip out the backdoor
|
| What was the price of what we lost?
|
| You won’t remember any of these meetings
|
| Any of the things you did or did not own
|
| This is the part where we learn that love is
|
| Not having to do this on your own.
|
| This is my country
|
| This is your country too
|
| There are so many things we need to change
|
| It’d be too easy to let it overwhelm us
|
| It’d be too easy to let things stay the same
|
| Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| Am I needed here (yes you’re safe here)
|
| Am I Loved Here (yes you’re loved here)
|
| Am I needed here (yes you’re safe here) |
