Lyrics: You’re dancing between the lines,
Forever searching for the greener side.
So you string me up from the streetlight
To wait for your signal.
Your worn out white lies.
And there you go again,
Saying what I knew you’d say.
There you go again,
Thinking you’ll get your way.
There you go again,
And every word’s bringing me down, down, down, down.
You stood beside me when things
Were going my way.
Then turned your back
When it started getting crazy.
And when there’s nothing you can say,
You turn your head and look away.
Don’t say you love me.
So spare me the lines,
Stop reminiscing on better times.
I’ve freed all that pain from my troubled mind.
You had it, you knew it,
You let it slip away.
And there you go again,
Saying what I knew you’d say.
There you go again,
Thinking you’ll get your way.
There you go again,
This time I’m shutting you down.
You stood beside me when things
Were going my way.
Then turned your back
When it started getting crazy.
And when there’s nothing you can say,
You turn your head and look away.
So turn and look away.
So tell me your sorry, tell me you hate me,
It’s all the same.
Of all the things you could say to me,
Of all the things,
Don’t say you love me.
I’m still standing here,
As you walk away.
Not a tear to shed,
Not a word to say.
Don’t you ever look back.
You stood beside me when things
Were going my way.
Then turned your back
When it started getting crazy.
And when there’s nothing you can say,
You turn your head and look away.
And when there’s nothing you can say,
You turn your head and look away.
Don’t say you love me.

About the Artist
Take Cover Take Cover

Take Cover formed in the fall of 2007 and hit the ground running. After a few months of writing, they entered the studio in the spring to record with their good friend and producer Jordan Schmidt (All Time Low, Motion City Soundtrack). Their debut self-titled EP was released that September and was followed by a first tour with Minnesota natives Sing It Loud (Epitaph Records) and You, Me and Everyone We Know (Doghouse Records). The boys were honored to begin their journey as a band with such an esteemed touring package and didn't let the momentum stop there. After touring on their self-titled EP that following winter and spring of 2009, they began the writing process for their sophomore EP "The Last Word." (Also produced by Jordan Schmidt). Following a sold out hometown release show for this EP, Take Cover hit the road once more in the summer and fall of 2009 with Quietdrive (formerly Sony Records) and The Higher (Epitaph Records). Over the winter of 2009, Take Cover began putting together an acoustic EP titled "Waiting in the Moment", consisting of both old and new songs. This online release, debuting in January of 2010, gave the fans a unique look into the versatility of the band, all the while giving the band more time to write new full band songs during the winter. Take Cover released their debut full length, "The Dreamer and The Realist" (produced by Jordan Schmidt) in June of 2011, and hit the road with pop giants Every Avenue and Hit the Lights. Take Cover has also shared the stage with such acts as The Fold, William Beckett (The Academy Is), Danny Stevens (The Audition), Jamestown Story, Reel Big Fish and The Graduate. Take Cover parted ways in April 2012 to a sold out crowd and have since started new projects.
