Lyrics

Declare yourself an unsafe building
Suffer the indignation of your world

To climb the ladders you've gotta suss out the snakes
Remember your height remember to never look down

For now you've made your choice
You've gotta take your chance
Find a way out now

For i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself unsafe

Come out of the cupboard and into the real world
Open the window and let some light into your life
It's dark in the tunnel but keep on coming through

Straight down the line and sure enough you'll see the lights that shine

For now you're young
You've got to run
You've got to take the chance
Find a way out now

Oh now now i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself unsafe

Behind the wardrobe there lies a better life
Burn all your old clothes
Start again make yourself something new
Rebuild your life
Rebuild your home
Rethink your values
Rethink yourself right through

Oh now now i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself
Unsafe, unsound, unknown, unwanted, unnecessary
I've been condemmed
Oh I'm unsafe

Yes I am

Oh i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself
Oh i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself
Oh i
I have declared myself unsafe
I have declared myself
