Running for Cover Lyrics

For forty days, and for forty nights, I been
walkin' down these streets tryin' to get it
right. But down there lies darkness, down
there lies the past, down there my
conscience... kinda kicked my a**.
You got me runnin' for cover, runnin' from
bein' me. You got me runnin' for cover, for
cryin' out loud.

I hear them moanin', from distant lands.
Have some hookers shut 'em up with some
swollen glands. Now beggin's changed, I
guess you'll do. Just a hoodrat all jacked
off and tangled up in blue. There's blood at
home, there's blood on my street. How am I
to smile in complete defeat. Well, I'm
jumpin' into limbo, tryin' to feel alive. I'm
jumpin' into limbo, and I like it.
You got me runnin' for cover, runnin' from
bein' me. You got me runnin' for cover, for
cryin' out loud.

Into the quiet dusk I see, curvy clouds
chokin' up on irony. I give it a pause, and I
break to the left. But I'm wasted and I can't
seem to catch my breath. Here I go, just one
more time. Findin' out whats goin' on with
the party line, well, I'm jumpin' into limbo,
tryin' to feel alive. I'm jumpin' into limbo,
and I like it.
You got me runnin' for cover, runnin' from
bein' me. You got me runnin' for cover, for
cryin' out loud.
