See the error log for details of why the server stopped. It is usually
located either in /var/log (or its subdirectories, such us /var/log/mysql)
or in mysql data directory, which in your case is /var/lib/mysql. The error
log filename pattern is 'something.err' (hostname.err, mysqld.err, etc.).
The mysqld_safe script should by executed with --skip-grant-tables option:

# mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
