Lets Run for Cover

Robert James

2024 50/90 Challenge song idea number 49 becomes finished song number 49.

I like this one a little. It feels like 6/8 but I have the MIDI tracks running in 4/4 with a triplet feel. It sort of comes out the same.

The rhythm guitars are my SG Standard into a Klon KTR into a Keeley Super Phat Mod into both a Fender Bassbreaker 15 and a Vox MV50 Clean, both running direct output with built in cabinet emulation. The leads are my Les Paul Custom into a Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian into the KTR into an MXR Carbon Copy Mini into the same two amps as the rhythm parts.

Verse 1
On the edge of complete collapse
everything slipping through the cracks
On the brink of insanity
take a break from reality

Verse 2
Giving in to the disbelief
Giving way to the epic grief
Up to you how you want to be
Don’t you see what you do to me

Chorus
Lets run for cover we’re going under
One or another bring on the suffer
Never recover It makes you shudder
End of the summer we might have our way
Just say the word

Break
Minor breakthrough
If it were true
