Running For Cover

from Phoenix EP by Dana Rexx

about

The concept of 'Running for Cover' was inspired by a story by Hans Christian Andersen 'The Ballerina and a Tin Soldier', which is a fairy tale about love ending up in flames.

The song explores the boundaries between how society sees an ideal relationship and how they actually form in real life. Our lives don't always unfold the way we imagined it, nor does love and the way we fall into it.

lyrics

He fell from heights too high to survive
His soul took flight and left him paralyzed
While everybody else was on their way to somewhere
She's the only one who even cared
They say that life was never meant to be fair
But she came and answered his prayers

Boy and a girl
Running for cover
Dead to the world
But happy together
Living their days through the rain and the thunder
Killing the pain of the weight they've been under
Dead to the world
But love lasts forever
When you're running for cover

She danced on waves that would cause her heart to ache
Her body caved but her spirit wouldn't break
While everybody else was running late to nowhere
He's the only one who stopped to stare
Just when she was falling into despair
He came to tell her he cared

Boy and a girl
Running for cover
Dead to the world
But happy together
Living their days through the rain and the thunder
Killing the pain of the weight they've been under
Dead to the world
But love lasts forever
When you're running for cover

Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover

Boy and a girl
Running for cover
Dead to the world
But happy together
Living their days through the rain and the thunder
Killing the pain of the weight they've been under
Dead to the world
But love lasts forever
When you're running for cover

Running for cover
Running for cover
Running for cover
