Song Description
Somethings buried.. or 'covered'... are best done so. We can fill our backyards with the painful memories. Sometimes, it's best to leave them as they should be; buried and in the past.
But if they are buried, worrying about their resurfacing can be its own prison. Stay covered. It's not always a weakness but the ultimate strength.

Lyrics
Cover me in Sunny Days
Cover me like Purple Haze
Most of all, Just cover me
Lucky is as lucky gets
Lucky never can forget
All those awful things you did to me
I'm not strong enough to leave you
But when I'm covered I can't see you
Ayyy.. Ay, Ay, Ay Ay, Ay
Cover me up Today
There's a field in my backyard
Where the ground is soft but the mem'ries hard
And the wind talks to me like it was my only friend
I have taken truths I've found
Buried each one underground
With no headstone so I couldn't dig 'em up again
It's been 5 yrs since Salinas
I've tried to put that wall between us
Ayyy.. Ay, Ay, AyAy, Ay
Cover me up Today
I had my favorite heart attack
When the ground broke open and my thoughts came back
And those long-dead memories were alive & well
The saddest stories never end
You're bound to tell them All again
No one has to die to go to Hell
But I can turn off all the screaming
If I tell myself I'm just dreaming
Ayyy... Ay, Ay, AyAy, Ayy
Cover me up today
Cover me up today
Cover me up today
