Don't Run For Cover Lyrics - Helloween

You hide, won't fight, avoid the daylight 

Give in, won't win, no try to make it right 

Why don't you stop crying? Stop your painful dying 

Why don't you give your life a sense? 

One game, one aim but you're always sleeping 

One light so bright, in darkness you're creeping 

Why don't you use your head? Step out of your warm bed 

And stop being on anxious rat 

Run for your destination, fly to the sun 

Don't give a damn what the people may say 

It's like a chain on your leg, when you always look back 

If you don't risk anything, one day you'll pay 

Don't run for cover, don't cry alone 

Make a step on your stairway 

One step closer to what you live for 

Don't run for cover, don't throw away 

The only chance that you got 

To be the fire in a hot life you choose 

No pride, no right, [unverified], in your heart is more strength 

You know, I know, your destiny's in your hand 

Now you have this time to survive, don't be blind 

In this world where so many can't see 

Try to catch the key, make that you can see 

The light of your life your way to go 

It's like a chain on your leg when you always look back 

If you don't risk anything, one day you'll pay 

Don't run for cover, don't cry alone 

Make a step on your stairway 

One step closer to what you live for 

Don't run for cover, don't throw away 

The only chance that you got 

To be the fire in a hot life you choose
