Alkaline Trio
Over And Out

"Over and out," she said, from a hospital bed
"For what it's worth, it doesn't hurt, don't cry."
"Over and out," he said, with a .45 to his head
"The war has taken everything from me, it's all I see so..."

Run for cover as fast as you can
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you tonight
For leaving you tonight

"Over and out," he sighed, "it seems I've run out of time.
Please tell my wife I loved her more than life itself."
"Over and out," she sang, as the telephone rang
"There's no pain, no answering no more, no."

So run for cover as fast as you can
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you

Run for cover and you'll find us there
To take on the anguish, make it disappear
When hand grenades and napalm flames are leaving you tonight

Let this candle burn 'til you get home
Never forget your face, never lose hope
Tonight...

Run for cover as fast as you can
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you

Run for cover and you'll find us there (Over and out)
To take on the anger, make it disappear (Over and out)
When razor blades were softly serenading you

  • I love these guys. This is one of my favorite songs by them. I consider them punk /emo punk. Mostly because they sing about their emotions and how they feel. Punk to me is when a band doesnt really stick with the cliche or whatever. Seeing as how i cant really find any band that sounds similar to alkaline trio or that sing like about some of the stuff they do, i consider them punk. Blink182 was classified as neopunk, an i consider them punk. Punk is too broad a term to argue over. Alkaline Trio!

  • if u dislike this, u the biggest dick in the world..

  • This song had such potential with the melody in the verses but unfortunately the "run for cover" chorus is very dime-a-dozen, cookie-cutter, teenie-bopper sounding that cheeses it up. Too bad, I'll stick with the "Heavens" album.
