Feel Unsafe

by Good Habits

/

about

The feeling of safety is an abstract and sometimes inexplicable feeling. The warmth and intimacy of the track produces the comfort Bonnie longs for against darker undertones in the lyrics which criticise an ‘out of sight, out of mind’ attitude.

lyrics

Un-ignorable urge to hide
I am not as small as I used to be
And I won’t come out
Until I know it’s safe
But I’m not so sure anymore

Ignoring to protect
Turn away easily neglecting
Problems often forgotten
People often forgotten

I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe


The more I learn I can feel the weight
I can’t hold it on behalf of you
Moving forward I tread more lightly
We can’t go back to that you before

Ignoring to protect
Turn away easily neglecting
Problems often forgotten
People often forgotten

I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe

Between choosing easy
And choosing others
Between choosing easy
And choosing others
Between choosing easy
And choosing others
Between choosing easy
And choosing others

I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe

I’ve been given a million reasons to feel unsafe
