Words came out sharp, I kept chasing nights
when all we need was to talk things through
this is a process of learning that love is
not what you say, or what you do
this is my country, this is your country too
there are so many things we need to change
it'd be too easy to let it overwhelm us, itd be too use to let things stay the same
I say, am I safe here, yes you are safe here
Am I needed here, yes you are needed here, yes you are, yes you are
told us how this was not our problem
how this was none of our concern
then they chiseled and chiseled and chiseled
until everything you loved, everything you earned, is taken away from you
this is my country, this is your country too
there are so many things we need to change
it'd be too easy to let it overwhelm us,
itd be too use to let things stay the same
I say, am I safe here, yes you are safe here
Am I needed here, yes you are needed here, yes you are, yes you are
and well, we stood around and talked about it
they took it all away
well we argue about the cause
and brought it back, and here you go, hey bay-by
we won't remember, any of these meetings
we won't remember the things we did or did not own
this is the part where you throw your hards in the air
I said I though I could, but I can't do it on my own
this is my country, this is your country too
there are so many things we need to change
it'd be too easy to let it overwhelm us,
itd be too use to let things stay the same
am I safe here, yes you are safe here
Am I needed here, yes you are needed here, yes you are, yes you are
am I safe here, yes you are safe here
Am I needed here, yes you are needed here, yes you are, yes you are
