Safe Spot

So intricately sewn along
And all the while
You’re in the safe spot looking on
Threading the needle

We’re single file under yellow rope
Pacified, sweating through the silence
We walk home in

Meet in the same spot every night
And I'm looped through all the same holes
Sodium vapor caught you right
And I'm helpless

We’re single file under yellow rope
Pacified, sweating through the silence
Silence

Oh, how do you keep this going?
How can you bear to stand so tall?
Oh, cause I get tired of running
My way out of these old halls
Oh, how do you keep this going?
How can you bear to stand so tall?
Oh, cause I get tired of running
But that was safer all along
