Cover Fire

In the middle of the night

In the calm of the ceasefire

You can hear the buildings breathing out a sigh

And I walked with you

Through the paintings that still hang inside my mind

I really miss you sometimes

Never saw it coming

Screaming out into the night sky

You gave me, you gave me

It was all surrounding

When darkness fell on every street light

You gave me, you gave me

Cover fire

Cover fire, ohh

Cover fire

Cover fire

And saved me

And the sky was alive

The bullets raced around our heads

We ran for shelter

Anywhere to hide

And all the walls they were shaking

You promised everything would be alright

I really need you tonight

Never saw it coming

Screaming out into the night sky

You gave me, you gave me

It was all surrounding

But you rose up like morning sunlight

And gave me, and gave me

Cover fire

(You’re always taking on the world for me

And I’m always gonna have your back)

Cover fire

(Make me feel like I could walk through flames

Now you’re here I know the war is over)

Cover fire

(You’re always taking on the world for me

And I’m always gonna have your back)

Cover fire

(Make me feel like I could walk through flames

Now you’re here I know the war is over)
