Safe Room

This safe room

This safe room

This safe room faces north

It’s built on solid ground

Its made from solid wood

And concrete at the base

It fosters a safe space

Suspended place

Some face it

Some displace it

Basis

Of their faceless

Misery

Trickery

Of their inner world

Crossed and curled

Like the crime of a century

Your own personal pearl

Yeah, the crime of a century

Built on idle time

Our personal penitentiary

Built on yours and mine

This marriage

Reflects our treachery

Built to withstand the test of time

The safe room

Did you really think it would go away

With the closing of a door

Do you really think that it will be okay

Some things in life you can’t ignore

Did you really think it would go away

With the closing of a door

Do you really think that it will be okay

Some things in life you can’t ignore

This safe room

This safe room

This safe room’s

Full of storage

Sometimes I scale its walls

To see what I can forage

Like some

Labyrinthine forest

Its pores

They stretch across the walls

Its scars they crack the halls

The windows bleed

The staircase has no steps for feet

No entrance where we’ll ever meet

Did you really think it would go away

With the closing of a door

Do you really think that it will be okay

Some things in life you can’t ignore

Did you really think that it would go away

With the closing of a door

Do you really think that it will be okay

Some things in life you can’t ignore
