Shelter Me - Live
This ain't no place for losers
Or the innocent of mind
It's a full time job
For anyone, to stay alive
The streets have shallow boundaries
For the war that's everyone
What a wasteland for
Broken dreams and hired guns
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me?
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
I've gone to sleep
But when I open
The other holds my tears
In the darkness
I can hide my heart
But none of my fears
In the morning
Like a soldier
I approach the battleground
Another day
Another dollar made
And the world goes round
Shelter me
Oh, shelter me
When I lose control
Of my own home
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me?
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
EverY time I tumble down
I want to pack it up and leave this town
When I finally get the nerve
The land out of my shoes
I'm thanking you
I'm thanking you
Won't you shelter me?
Shelter me
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
Baby, shelter me
When I lose control
Of my own home
Shelter me
Baby, shelter me
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me, yeah
Or the innocent of mind
It's a full time job
For anyone, to stay alive
The streets have shallow boundaries
For the war that's everyone
What a wasteland for
Broken dreams and hired guns
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me?
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
I've gone to sleep
But when I open
The other holds my tears
In the darkness
I can hide my heart
But none of my fears
In the morning
Like a soldier
I approach the battleground
Another day
Another dollar made
And the world goes round
Shelter me
Oh, shelter me
When I lose control
Of my own home
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me?
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
EverY time I tumble down
I want to pack it up and leave this town
When I finally get the nerve
The land out of my shoes
I'm thanking you
I'm thanking you
Won't you shelter me?
Shelter me
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
Baby, shelter me
When I lose control
Of my own home
Shelter me
Baby, shelter me
When I'm sinking like I'm losing ground
Shelter me, yeah
