There's a safe room in my mind.

I can go there anytime
to hide out from the bad guys.

I built it myself
with blood, tears, and sweat
but mostly tears.

There's a safe room in my mind
where I can pretend those empty
bodies without souls
can't see me.

I know they still can, but I can't
feel them.

There's a safe room in my mind.

It was meant for emergencies
but it became my home for a while
until I was afraid to leave.

There's a safe room in my mind.

The only requirement for entry is
locking everyone else out.

Close the door tight and hide the key.

That's how I got lost in it for so long.

There's a safe room in my mind

I still crawl inside and hide.

Sometimes I forget to step back outside
but I no longer need it.

I have a safe room in my mind

I no longer need.

Would you like to buy?
