Story Behind The Song
As a child, I lived through the Iran/Iraq war in Iran until the age of 11. This is a very personal song for me, as I tried to capture the feeling of anxiety, tension, and struggle between hope and despair as a result of my experience. This was definitely the source of inspiration for this song.
Song Description
This song is about feelings of volunerability toward demons outside and within us. It follows the dynamic of tension felt during war...can be interpreted as an internal or external struggle.

Lyrics
Take cover, safety, shelter.
Give it up you're fading away,
Give it up they're shooting away,
Give it up they're coming your way,
Give it up we're going away.
Take cover, safety, shelter.
I need shelter.
