Chris Cornell - Safe And Sound lyrics
[Chris Cornell - Safe And Sound lyrics]
Think of a time when morning will come
And you will wake up without the feeling
That half the world has gone insane
You'll open your eyes, reading your paper
Or drink from your cup
No one was burning down the
Town while you were sleeping
I've never seen
But I believe in a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
Think of a place you could
Believe in whatever you want
Not keep it secret
Have to risk your life just to be yourself
A place where you walk safely
No matter your color or age
More than the greed of you and me
Decides the fate of the day
I've never seen
But I believe in a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
I'd rather see you set it free
Than watch the curtains coming down
Think of a life that won't take
The breath from somebody else
One where you're seeking more than yourself
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found a world around us safe and sound
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
I'd rather see you set it free
Than watch the curtains coming down
And you will wake up without the feeling
That half the world has gone insane
You'll open your eyes, reading your paper
Or drink from your cup
No one was burning down the
Town while you were sleeping
I've never seen
But I believe in a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
Think of a place you could
Believe in whatever you want
Not keep it secret
Have to risk your life just to be yourself
A place where you walk safely
No matter your color or age
More than the greed of you and me
Decides the fate of the day
I've never seen
But I believe in a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
I'd rather see you set it free
Than watch the curtains coming down
Think of a life that won't take
The breath from somebody else
One where you're seeking more than yourself
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
And we can say we finally
Found a world around us safe and sound
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together
And we can say we finally
Found the world around us safe and sound
I'd rather see you set it free
Than watch the curtains coming down
