Secrets and Safety
Secrets and safety, prey on your mind
Warm honour and valediction, you're biding your time
Stepped into colder places, fighting against the crime
The lockdown prescription untying the ties that bind
Secrets and safety, play with your time
Worn courage and contradiction, will make you unkind
Cold shouldered the golden faces, catching up with the final crime
Repealing the triumphs of ages, playing against your side
Secrets and safety, way down the line
To call out the day-long prediction: no weapons are fine
Stepped into older spaces, ambitions are bound in time
You back down tradition, it's no way to show your sign
Save me from that fear
Save me from my fears, again
