Words in my mouth
Someone told me to say
They go unspoken
My mind gets in the way

I hold my tongue
Save my, save my soul
True to myself
And stay gold

Sometimes you gotta pull the plug
Somewhere a little place to crawl
Love me for who I am
It doesn't have to be this hard
for an ordinary man

I wanna take cover
Take cover from you
Wake me when it's over
Take cover
I wanna take cover from you

Sold all my dreams
Watched them all disappear
I've spilled my blood
No one seems to care

Sometimes you gotta pull the plug
Somewhere a little place to crawl
Love me for who I am
How low do I have to go
to make you understand

I wanna take cover
Take cover from you
Wake me when it's over
Take cover
I wanna take cover from you (x2)

Cover, take cover
Nothing I can do
to keep from going on the take cover
Take cover from you

Save my soul, save my soul

Mr. Big I Love You!!!
