They might survive, they have a chance,
no way should they stay here.
The cards are dealt, the hand is weak, I know.
But out of sight, they're out of mind,
safe when far away.
My duty is to help them disappear.
The game we play means life or death,
and someone has to lose.
I pray it's not to people such as they.
A man who's good, his daughter too,
both too young to die.
If they escape, then I won't have to choose.
Safe in a world that's free from plots and
schemes, always a friend, not a foe.
Safe in a world where you pursue your dreams,
I
could envy them so.
Time's running out, if they're to go,
they have to go right now.
Their luck may change
before they've started out.
It only takes a little work,
a little thought and care,
and so maybe then they'll live.
Safe in a world without an evil thought,
smiles and hellos not for show.
Safe in a world that can be reached from here,
but
I'm too scared to go.
Time's running out,
if they're to go,
they have to go right now.
Their luck may change before they've started out.
It only takes a little work,
a little thought and care,
and so maybe then they'll live.
And this is what I can give.
