Cover Me Lyrics
I've felt better
I've been up all night
I can feel it coming
The morning light
The air is so cold here
It's so hard to breathe
We better take cover
Will you cover me?
Way up here with the northern lights
Beyond you and me
I dreamt of us in another life
One we've never reached
And you know we're sinking
We could fade away
I'm not going down
Not today
The air is so cold here
Too cold to see
We have to take cover
Cover me
Way up here with the northern lights
Beyond these broken bars
I pictured us in another life
Where we're all superstars
I've been up all night
I can feel it coming
The morning light
It's so hard to breathe
We better take cover
Will you cover me?
Beyond you and me
I dreamt of us in another life
One we've never reached
We could fade away
I'm not going down
Not today
Too cold to see
We have to take cover
Cover me
Beyond these broken bars
I pictured us in another life
Where we're all superstars

I think this a fairly simple call for Transcendence; freedom from chains, peace.
@redsuitcase I'm here to agree. I feel it's a call for Universal unity, and equality. Especially the last line. I guess being a superstar, touring, adoration... it can be on top at times. People walk away. In a Utopia, we would all spread the word, constantly.It's a call for unity.

@redsuitcase LOL!

@redsuitcase I think you’ve missed the point. Not saying it’s a bad thing, because you might be right. The adoration & touring is bullshit, it’s about peace of mind. The world isn’t going to be any sort of utopian vision, but one can find peace of mind. Probably more so than the “superstar”. I have no idea what you’re laughing at..

I was sure when I first heard this track that is was not Martin that wrote it because the style was so different from what I am used to hearing...That turned out to be correct, it was Dave Gahan with help from two other contributors. I think the meaning is pretty much straightforward, no hidden messages that I can make out anyway. The Depeche Mode - Cover Me (Dixon remix) is pretty good if you like progressive house or electronic music.
