Cover art for Saferwaters lyrics by Chevelle

the song is about someone who is lonely and alienates hims self from othere because he cant stand the way people have got, how fake people are now and is going into his sactuary where he has longed to go for so long... as the band states ""Saferwaters," which is about a misanthrope who strives to distance himself from humanity. "The guy is really sick of being a part of the human race, so he says he's crawling back to sea," says Pete. "It's taking an evolutionary mindset. He can't stand being on the earth, so he's basically going back home to the water."
