Safe

album: The Invisible Band
track number: 7/12
year: 2001








Breaking Dawn: Book Three – Chapter 38
“Forever,” I promised her.
We had forever. And Nessie was going to be fine and healthy and strong. Like the half-human Nahuel, in a hundred and fifty years she would still be young. And we would all be together.
Happiness expanded like an explosion inside me—so extreme, so violent that I wasn’t sure I’d survive it.

Take all the goods from all the bads
And tell the people that you've gone away
Now lift your head up to the sky
And now you can tell apart the black from the white

And you wish the time they treasure dear
And my only thought is that they could be right
Well look, there goes another year
About as distant as a satellite

And I feel safe, so safe
And I feel safe, so safe
And I feel safe, so safe
So safe

The world's a small child in the dark
And my mind's the same place that it's always been
The monsters seem to fade so fast
Upon the waking of another dream

And I feel safe, so safe
And I feel safe, so safe

And I feel safe, I feel so brave
I'm not afraid of anything they've got to say
If you're okay, because your tucked away
Don't go astray
You've got to be just who you are, who you are

When I was young things didnt last
My only cares went to the price of sweets
Now I'm more older I can laugh
A dolly mixed up man with problem teeth

Eclipse – Chapter 26 - Jacob's and Bella's perspective
With a sigh, he turned his cheek toward me.
I leaned in and kissed his face softly. “Love you, Jacob.”
He laughed lightly. “Love you more.”
He watched me walk out of his room with an unfathomable expression in his black eyes.

What's so wrong?
Why the face so long
Is it over?
And where you going that you no longer belong here?
And distance tells you that distance must come between love
Where have you been, Luv?
When the mistake we made was in never having planned to fall in love, Luv

Singing this song
Singing along
Makes it easier for me to see you go
But in doing so
I'm letting you go
It only serves to show me
That I'm still in love with you

Singing this song
Singing along
Makes it easier for me to see you go
But in doing so
In letting you go
It only serves to show me
That I'm still in love with you

So what's so wrong?
Why the face?
So long
Are you changing?
And where you been to that you no longer remember?
And distance tells you that distance must come between love
Where have you been, Luv?

It's just the chance we took
Having never planned to fall in love, Luv
Having never planned to fall in love, Luv
Having never planned to fall in love, Luv
Luv

Why Does It Always Rain On Me?

Twilight - Chapter 1
When I landed in Port Angeles, it was raining. I didn't see it as an omen--just unavoidable. I'd already said my goodbyes to the sun.

I can't sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything's alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at
The end of all these lights

Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning

I can't stand myself
I'm being held up by invisible men
Still life on a shelf when
I got my mind on something else

Sunny days
Oh Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue sky go?
And why is it raining so?
It's so cold

I can't sleep tonight
Everybody saying everything is alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights

Sunny days
Oh, where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling you belong

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning

Oh, where did the blue sky go?
Oh, and why is it raining so?
It's so cold

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining
I can't avoid the lightning

Why does it always rain on me?
Why does it always rain on
Oh, on
