arab strap – safe & well lyrics
[verse 1]
my last words unheard, my cold hand unheld
how long had it been since i drew my last breath?
but days must still dawn, and coffers need swelled
the meeting of targets, unhindered by death
demands overflowed while the seasons all turned
bikes blocked my doorway all day
the gasman’s last warning faded and sunburned, children and music still played
[refrain]
but my neighbours could see, my neighbours could smell, they fl!cked away maggots and flies
they pled with our landlords, told all they could tell something, or someone had died
but n0body came
[verse 2]
hundrеds of emails and messages lеft
i could not reply, and no flags were raised
n0body missed me, no friend was beret
police rang the bell once, but soon left unfazed
as my heart decomposed, a pandemic was tamed
everyone lived behind doors
temperatures rose, the world was in flames
fiends and fanatics fought wars
[refrain]
and then the storm came, blow
open my door, revealing what neighbours had known
bones and dust in pyjamas, my husk on the floor
a life lived and ended alone
and then they all came
see arab strap live
get tickets as low as $86
[outro]
can you hear me through your wall?
can you smell my cooking?
can you see my clothes dry on the line?
are you even looking?
how can you say i’m safe and well?
can you hear me praying?
all boxes ticked and paperworked, as life goes on decaying
