Safe to Say

Verse 1

You carry me out of the fire

But nothing ever seems to change

We keep on running from the ashes

Just to end up in the flames

I gave you everything I had

You gave me reasons to pretend

We kept on calling it forever

When we both knew how it ends

Pre-Chorus

I guess it's safe to say...

(Yeah, it's safe to say)

We lost ourselves along the way

And all the words we never spoke

Were buried underneath the pain

Chorus

You hide behind the mask

But the life you had never slips away

You can run, you can turn your back

But the truth is never far away

Is it safe to say

That you never loved me anyway?

Ah!

I won't keep drowning in yesterday

I won't keep giving my soul away

If losing you is what it takes

Then maybe losing you is my escape

Verse 2

I used to search behind your eyes

For someone I could recognize

But every time I reached for you

You disappeared behind the lies

I carried all the weight alone

Built a home from broken stones

And somewhere in the fading light

I found the strength to let you go

Pre-Chorus

I guess it's safe to say...

(Yeah, it's safe to say)

Some things will never be the same

And maybe I was meant to fall

To learn that I could stand again

Chorus

You hide behind the mask

But the life you had never slips away

You can run, you can turn your back

But the truth is never far away

Is it safe to say

That you never loved me anyway?

Ah!

I won't keep drowning in yesterday

I won't keep giving my soul away

If losing you is what it takes

Then maybe losing you is my escape

Bridge – stripped back, almost whispered

And if the fire takes the past

I'll let it burn, I'll let it last

I was never meant to disappear

Just to keep you standing here

I am more than what you broke

More than every empty hope

And when the smoke clears from my eyes

I'll be the one who comes alive

Final Chorus – explosive, powerful

You carried me out of the fire

But I found my own way through the flames

I guess it's safe to say...

(Yeah, it's safe to say)

I'll never be the same again

You hide behind the mask

But I don't need you anyway

Is it safe to say

That I was never yours to save?

Ah!

I won't keep drowning in yesterday

I won't keep giving my soul away

You were the storm, I was the rain

Now I'm the fire you couldn't tame

Outro – haunting, fading vocals

Safe to say...

I'm still alive

Safe to say...

I survived

Ah...

I survived.
