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 are set like boundaries
For a war that´s never won
On a wasteland full of broken dreams
And hired guns

Shelter me, baby shelter me
When I lose control or my way home
Shelter me

I go to sleep with one eye open
The other holds my tears
In the darkness I can hide my heart
But not my fears

In the morning like a soldier
I´ll approach the battleground
Another day, another dollar made
And the world goes round

Shelter me, baby shelter me
When I´m sinkin´ down, or losin´ ground
Shelter me

Every time I tumble down
I wanna pack it up and leave this town
But when I finally get the nerve
And the lead out of my shoes
I think of you, I think of you

Shelter me, baby shelter me
When I lose control or my way home
Shelter me
