Here we are safe

about

This song isn't really about anything. I could make up a lot of deep nonsense about transience of security and witch burnings etc. But this song is more about the sound of the words than their meaning. It took me quite a while to figure out how this song should be constructed musically. Maybe I haven't come up with something yet. I do like the chord structure of the verses, though.

lyrics

The sound of birds are fading
As the day withdraws its light
And we're filled with expectations
As we gaze upon the night

Comforting ourselves thinking
Here we are safe
Trying to forget
That we are transient

Behind the wooden doors
We shelter from the wild
Alone we are like islands
Drifting in the ocean

Comforting ourselves thinking
Here we are safe
Trying to forget
That we are transient
