The Athletic
It is September 2016, and the sun has set on Toronto's Withrow Park...
[Chorus]
Wait, what
Safe is dead
Wait, what
Safe is dead
[Verse 1]
The dark previews
Who'd miss this fear
A damn silence
Exiles meet
[Chorus]
Wait, what
Safe is dead
What, wait, what
Safe is dead
[Verse 2]
The dark brochure
Full dark soon
And then the rise
Of a scarred moon
[Chorus]
Wait, what (wait, what)
Safe is dead (safe is dead)
What, wait, what (wait, what)
Safe is dead (safe is dead)
[Verse 3]
The dark preview
Into my bed
The mirror is clear
In my head
[Chorus]
Wait, what (wait, what)
Safe is dead (safe is dead)
Wait, what (wait, what)
Safe is dead (safe is dead)
