Fordus - safe place [lyric video]

I was nominated by ‪@Sawswipe‬ for wardubs, a dynamic in which a track or clip is made in less than 24 hours.

This particular track was created based on experiences I had in college, the need to find a happy place in the face of so much stress and mental instability. Searching everywhere, clubs, empty classrooms, until I ended up in an abandoned building where I spent most of my free time.

This footage contains shots inside the university and the places where I found my happiness.

[LYRICS]

I needed to stand out to be seen
so I could take the mic
when nothing could get any worse
I failed every time I tried

my journey had never begun
for I kept being denied
my hands were still shaking too much
so I was forced to hide

q, i and k

of each ended the odd one out

g, n and h

don't let words come out of my mouth

paper and charcoal
playing with the ground to find out where it leads to my soul
stones are all cold
are the only thing that can hug me as it has been told
surrounded by alcohol
but it's much better than following their damn vain role

my arms are a blank space
covered by my safe place

my fantasy on slate
don't let the steel go through my arms

paper and charcoal
playing with the ground to find out where it leads to my soul
stones are all cold
are the only thing that can hug me as it has been told
surrounded by alcohol
but it's much better than following their damn vain role

my arms are a blank space
covered by my safe place

(paper and charcoal
playing with the ground to find out where it leads to my soul
stones are all cold
are the only thing that can hug me as it has been told
surrounded by alcohol
but it's much better than following their damn vain role
my arms are a blank space
covered by my safe place)
