It's Not Safe Lyrics
Is it safe to go outside?
Have I waited long enough
to face the world?
How can I face the world
When every tree and traffic light
is asking me the reason
why I let you go
and I don't really know
All the old men on the block are my Greek chorus
Kids draw hearts there on the sidewalk for us
Chorus:
It's not safe to go outside
Like I feared
I need someplace that I can hide
This is getting weird
It's not safe to go outside
It's not safe,
since you went away
A mannequin who looks like you
is in the window a store
and can it be?
I swear he winked at me
And all the headlines that I read
They say you're out of here
and I'm the one to blame
They I say I threw the game
Now I'm running for my life, like Dustin Hoffman
I guess that I've been lucky once too often
Chorus
So I keep looking behind me
again and again
But there's no escaping
what we might have
what we might have been
Chorus
Have I waited long enough
to face the world?
How can I face the world
When every tree and traffic light
is asking me the reason
why I let you go
and I don't really know
Kids draw hearts there on the sidewalk for us
It's not safe to go outside
Like I feared
I need someplace that I can hide
This is getting weird
It's not safe to go outside
It's not safe,
since you went away
is in the window a store
and can it be?
I swear he winked at me
And all the headlines that I read
They say you're out of here
and I'm the one to blame
They I say I threw the game
I guess that I've been lucky once too often
again and again
But there's no escaping
what we might have
what we might have been
