You must have seen the light somewhere along the way 
The flashing warning sign that you would not obey 
You ran the roadblock before the danger zone 
You cut the lifeline - now you're on your own 

Run for cover, better get under authority 
Run for cover, better listen to somebody 
Like a lone ranger running through the night 
With no one to tell you if you're wrong or right 
Run for cover 

You want to call the shots, you want to take control 
You want to throw the dice and gamble with your soul 
Taking the liberties that grace will not afford 
Is He your Master, can you call Him Lord? 

Why do you stand out in the rain 
What do you think you have to gain 
When you try in your own strength but don't prevail 
The arm of flesh will always fail
