[Verse 1]
Did you hear it on the radio?
They're not playing your song
Bad news everywhere you go
The night drags on and on

[Verse 2]
It's so hard no to look away
To cover up your ears
When you ask me what will I say
To take away your fear?
When will we get some rest here?
[Chorus]
I would keep you safe
If I just knew how to
If I could hide you

I would keep you safe
From this place
[Verse 3]
I don’t ever want to know his name
I don’t care where he’s from
People are hurting here everyday
Because of what he’s done
When will we get some rest here?
[Chorus]
I would keep you safe
If I just knew how to
If I could hide you
I would hide you
I would keep you safe
From this place
[Outro]
I wish I could say that it’s over
That something’s gonna change
Take you to school tomorrow
And not be afraid
