about
A song about leaving home to go to university and being away from familiarity.
lyrics
Counting the seconds down,
Crossing the numbers off,
To when I can hold you again.
Staring at plain white walls,
Missing familiar laughs,
They always made me feel at home.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.
Faces are fading fast,
What did you look like last?
The glass is misted over.
I may have a photograph,
But if I break this branch,
I'm falling.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.
I'd quite like your company,
Quite like your company,
And I'm waiting up here,
Up in this canopy,
Up in this canopy.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.
Crossing the numbers off,
To when I can hold you again.
Staring at plain white walls,
Missing familiar laughs,
They always made me feel at home.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.
Faces are fading fast,
What did you look like last?
The glass is misted over.
I may have a photograph,
But if I break this branch,
I'm falling.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.
I'd quite like your company,
Quite like your company,
And I'm waiting up here,
Up in this canopy,
Up in this canopy.
I wish I could see a familiar face,
I'm out of my comfort zone,
Surrounded but I feel so alone.
I wish I could fall into your safety net once again,
There's no one to catch me here.

The Birthday Collection
by Kate McGillsupported by 11 fans who also own “Safety Net”
I have loved Kate for so long. Her words and her voice just make me feel all sorts of good things. I've loved everything she's put out from YouTube covers and Replaced back when I was in high school to Meadowlark and the occassional solo work now. She is a blessing on my life.

Four super songs from Sarah; all beautifully structured, sung and produced. There's a real brooding intensity to the messages built into these tracks – feelings that aren't quickly forgotten.
