You're safe Locked up in your safe No one knowing the combination but you Feelings in safe deposit boxes Padlocked just to make sure I tried to sneak in the dead of night Hoping to find a crack But I never was good with subtleties I attempted to hold you hostage But you never even bothered to ask about a ransom I even tried to blow you up with dynamite But only lost pieces of myself You're safe now Locked up in your safe Safe from burglars in the dead of night Safe from being held at gunpoint Safe from being in a war zone No one knows your combination Or has the keys to your padlocks I hope that she has a wrecking ball Smashing open your steel door before you even see it coming I hope that she has a stethoscope Pressing her ear against your chest as you hold her close Each beat of heart is a click closer to cracking the code without you even knowing I hope that she frees you from yourself because I sure as hell couldn't

For the One I Look Over My Shoulder at Once in a While...
You're safe Locked up in your safe No one knowing the combination but you Feelings in safe deposit boxes Padlocked just to make sure I tried to sneak in the dead of night Hoping to find a crack But I never was good with subtleties I attempted to hold you hostage But you never even bothered to ask about a ransom I even tried to blow you up with dynamite But only lost pieces of myself You're safe now Locked up in your safe Safe from burglars in the dead of night Safe from being held at gunpoint Safe from being in a war zone No one knows your combination Or has the keys to your padlocks I hope that she has a wrecking ball Smashing open your steel door before you even see it coming I hope that she has a stethoscope Pressing her ear against your chest as you hold her close Each beat of heart is a click closer to cracking the code without you even knowing I hope that she frees you from yourself because I sure as hell couldn't
