All alone in your new apartment
There are stains from the ones before
Washing up on a beach of carpet
You were drowned and you found the shore
Little things that keep you sober
Keep them close when I’m far away
As the tide is moving lower
I think it’s time for you to stay
Everybody needs a place to hide
In your room, safe inside
Keep it with you for another whole try
In your room, safe inside
In your room, sanctified
There is something else about you
Not the walls but the space inside
In the halls I learned to doubt you
Even words need a place to hide
Who are we but the floating remnants
Of a collision at the start of all time?
All alone in your new apartment
Tell yourself it’ll all be fine
Everybody needs a place to hide
In your room, safe inside
Keep it with you for another whole try
In your room, safe inside
In your room, safe inside
Everybody needs a place to hide
In your room safe inside
Keep it with you for another whole try
In your room, safe inside
In your room, sanctified
In your room, safe inside
