Safety Pin

(album: Stripped 2 - 2019)

Twenty years old, yet I still don't know how it really goes
I guess we make things up as we go
Tryna figure out what time only knows

Wish I was wise, then maybe I would've realized
All the mistakes and white little lies
Were the lows that gave me the highs

So go be careless with your love
And go be reckless till it hurts
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin
And don't be precious, fill your lungs
And don't regret the things you've done
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin

Call me on the phone when you're too drunk and out on your own
And you're so high that God only knows
How you'll find your way back to your home

And no one ever said that rules were not made to be bent
All I'll say is go give it your best
Don't settle for anything less

Oh, so go be careless with your love
And go be reckless till it hurts
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin
And don't be precious, fill your lungs
And don't regret the things you've done
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin

Nothing's better than walking away
But sometimes you might have to stay
You can take it all, but you can't take the strain, oh

So go be careless with your love
And go be reckless till it hurts
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin
And don't be precious, fill your lungs
And don't regret the things you've done
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
I'll always be your safety pin
