Duck & Cover

[Verse] There’s a shadow on the sidewalk long and lean The sky’s turning colors I’ve never seen Whispers in the wind that bite like teeth Is it a warning or just make-believe [Prechorus] The sirens scream like they know my name The rules are broken but the game’s the same [Chorus] Duck and cover it’s coming down Heads to the dirt while the world spins round Duck and cover don’t make a sound Hold your breath till you’re lost and found [Verse 2] The streetlights flicker like they’ve had enough The asphalt’s cracking like it’s calling my bluff I see your face in the shattered glass A reflection of a future that won’t quite last [Prechorus] The ground shakes but I’m still here Caught between the chaos and the fear [Chorus] Duck and cover it’s coming down Heads to the dirt while the world spins round Duck and cover don’t make a sound Hold your breath till you’re lost and found [Verse] Sky is falling heavy and gray Whispers of trouble They’re on replay Grab your hat Grab your lover It’s time to duck and cover [Chorus] Duck and cover Run for the shade When the world goes wild We’re self-made No time to think Just react like thunder Duck and cover Don’t let it pull you under [Verse 2] Ground is shaking Cracks in the floor A siren’s howl It begs for more No heroes here No time to hover You just duck You just cover [Prechorus] Close your eyes Count to three Hope it’s gone when you can see [Chorus] Duck and cover Run for the shade When the world goes wild We’re self-made No time to think Just react like thunder Duck and cover Don’t let it pull you under [Bridge] Lightning strikes It’s a dangerous dance Fate’s a coin It flips by chance Hold your breath Let it pass The storm’s a mirror It breaks like glass
