Safe Passage

well everybody i know

has one good chance to die

to be swallowed whole by the big blue empty sky

feel the heavens stare

with a cold hard look in it's eyes

to hear the sound of something awful on the rise

so pray for safe passage through the night

you'll be humbled by sounds of daylight

and this is an endless search

to find how much is enough

this could be so much worse

but we sold our souls for gold

you know that nobody in this room

wants to hear you cry

and if nobody goes for help

baby you're gonna die

it came and went so fast

you'd almost thought you'd missed

a chance to shake your head and say

how did it come to this

pray for safe passage through the night

you'll be humbled by the sounds of daylight

and this is an endless search

to find how much is enough

this could be so much worse

but we sold our souls for gold

we sold our souls

we sold our souls
