about

“Blunderbuss” is the newest single from Safari Room, detailing the push and pull of hook-up culture and learning what we all want through brief encounters. Amidst dance beats and driving guitars, “Blunderbuss” discusses the alluring nature of going home with someone at the end of the night. But it then begs the questions: Is it the right call or is it just temporarily filling a void? Is it all going to blow up in my face?

lyrics

I believe that someone will take me home tonight,
and I believe that someone is you.
You’re someone I can trust,
or at least that’s what you want me to believe.
So trust in you I will.

I hold onto your shoulder,
you lead me through a menagerie of life
and the loudest place on Earth.
You guide me through the hallways.
The flashing lights and warning signs ignite
as we reach the open door.

Isn’t it a wonder, we put our faith in a stranger’s face,
hoping that they might be our fire escape?
Just hope it’s not a blunderbuss pointed at our face.
We’re all looking for someone to hold.

The lines are getting blurry,
somewhere between what I want and I need,
and I’m not so sure it’s this.
You say, “don’t be in a hurry,
we’ve got all night and you’ve got your life to find
someone to set you free.”

Isn’t it a wonder, we put our faith in a stranger’s face,
hoping that they might be our fire escape?
Just hope it’s not a blunderbuss pointed at our face.
We’re all looking for someone to hold.

Isn’t it a wonder, we put our faith in a stranger’s face,
hoping that they might be our fire escape?
Just hope it’s not a blunderbuss pointed at our face.
We’re all looking for someone to hold.
