Safe Here

Later that day we made our way to the old cathedral door A flame, a figure, a shadow Walked away towards the tower alone We must be close nearby Hope cannot her own way through dark It's cold, I'm torn, it's gray There's a light that never grows dim But if all can be made right there's still a chance on New Year's Day And if grace were here I would love to see her face somehow, someway And if all is well then it means there's still a chance in hell You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine Climbing the stairs towards heaven Making our own way into the room Empty, barren Not another soul in sight Then when the moon came crawling There in the night a great divide A whisper, a motion, a calling Were the 99 all right? But if all can be made right there's still a chance on New Year's Day And if all is well then it means there's still a chance in hell You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine Now a tradition's said buying penance did A wrong a right, a great collapse Great collapse You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine There is shelter, shelter from the mire of life Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in You are safe here, safe here in these arms of mine
