Safer Ground
(verse)
This place is feeling old
I sense that trouble’s close
Like shadows on the wall
I feel it in my bones
(verse)
Their eyes will not heed
Warnings plainly seen
Find those who will act
Tell them tonight we leave
(chorus)
It’s time we blow this town
Like in Watership Down
Pull up stakes and move out
Head for safer ground
(verse)
Movement down the lane
Friend or foe, I can’t say
It may not be a fiend
But it’s a stranger just the same
(bridge)
Let’s find a place where we fit in
And live our days until the end
Away from heartache, harm and pain
And memories of where we’ve been
(chorus)
It’s time to blow this town
Like in Watership Down
Pull up stakes and move out
Head for safer ground
