Safe and Sound Lyrics

Running from the fire
Burning down my soul
Climbing to get higher
And keep me from feeling low

Building up a distance
To all I've ever known
Taking it for granted
That I have never grown

Don't need a lover for sexual healing
Don't need more novocaine
To avoid this feeling
My sense of humour keeps on
Dragging me down
Can't stop moving
Till I get home, safe and sound

Running to the seaside
Wish that I could swim
Wherever it would take me
I can only win

Rivers icing over
And mountains sinking in
Whenever I feel empty
And don't know where I've been

Don't need a lover for sexual healing
Don't need more novocaine
To avoid this feeling
My sense of humour keeps on
Dragging me down
Can't stop moving
Till I get home, safe and sound
Safe and sound
Safe and sound
Safe and sound
