Safe

How do you know if your truly safe 
How do you know if you can really escape
How do we know it will all be okay
When everything we do is really just a phase
Of happiness and sadness coming and going
Not really trying to stay
It’s like everything you know will one day fade away
Even though we can’t live like this 
In constant fear of the unknown
Many people tend to live with regret 
Many people try to run away 
From everything that they can not live with
But how can you hide from yourself
How can you hide from all the hurt
How can you cut out and live without your heart
How can you stray away from the path of sadness
When all they can do is bring it to the surface
Not trying to let you live anything down 
How can you truly know if people hold good intentions
When all you see is tension
Not knowing how you can truly be safe 
With all the bad things people say
Its like they don’t understand
What they truly hurt inside
That you’re a person with feelings 
Which end up dying because of them
