If I could wake my crooked heart
If I was there right from the start
To feel what it was like to be turned on.

If you could fight the battle and win
To miss the mark correct within
If your wish came true -- your dreams made real.

Running for cover;
Running to hide.

If I could be a wiser man
To rest my head and trust the plan
And fighting like a child to get my way

If I could see the garden place
Before the fall, would things have changed?
I wasn't there, and neither were you
But I take the blame, as you should too, my friend.

Now we're running for cover
Running to hide
Yeah, we're running for cover
Running to hide

We've been trying with each other to unravel the age-old story,
But I'm starting to think that there's a reason we don't understand.
And it's easy to blame someone else for my wants and my worries,
But I know, I accept that it's just a part of who I am.

Now we're running for cover
Running to hide
And you say it's not my problem
Out of sight, out of mind.

Yes, we're running for cover
Yeah, we're running afraid
As we run with one another
Of the mess that we've made

OK so I was foot tapping, not whistling, I didn't turn up the volume, I did read the lyrics, but I didn't rate the song. Does that count?

Any song that I start tapping my foot to the beat and whistling to the melody gets an automatic 8 from me.

It's almost formulaic. But they do a lot with that formula. So I'm bumping. 7 > 8.

Sweet.  Love that chimey guitar.  {#Clap}  Upbeat, evocative music on a downbeat story.

Very nice. We'll hear more from this group, but the rating on this one needs a boost.

Acoording to their name they have been reading Dostojevski.
