Under Cover

Scurry To Their Side And Try To Catch A Break No One Has The Time For Decisions That They Make On The Road To Happiness Hopes Fall On The Grim Out Here, On The Horizon’s Edge The Lights Are Getting Dim In The End We’re Animals Victims To Our Need Giving Not Too Easy Now Fallen, To Our Greed All The Hopes In One Hand And The Let Downs In The Other Bringing Balance To A Life Best Lived Under Cover Falling Back Now To A Place We Can Control Acceptance Always Granted With The Payment Of Your Soul Today Is Not The First And We Are Far From Last Just An Upended Recurrence Footnoted In The Past It All Seems So Long Ago Now Gazing Through The Mirror Is There Any Truth Behind All The Stories That I Hear? For What Once Was Has Been Redone Ten Times Over And I’ve Become A Memory Best Lived Under Cover
