Cover Your Tracks
A Boy and His Kite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The blood that you spill will wash what you lack
Soul, sew up your wounds
Test out your engine. Give it some room
Mind, pick up your pace
Capture the thoughts you always chase
Soul, open your wings
Cover your tracks
Sew up your wounds
Pick up your pace
Open your wings
Heart, flesh out your webs
The past that was tangled will unwrap and shed
Soul, sing out your songs
Clear out your throat. Belt it out strong
Cover your tracks
Sew up your wounds
Pick up your pace
Open your wings
Cover your tracks
Cover your tracks
The lyrics of the song "Cover Your Tracks" by A Boy and his SID speak about making changes in oneself to become a better person. This change involves taking charge of one's body, mind, and soul. The first verse "Heart, cover your tracks, the blood that you spill will wash what you lack" talks about healing past wounds and hiding past mistakes that have held back the progress of the heart. By admitting faults and working on them, new paths can be opened up in life. The next verse "Soul, sew up your wounds, test out your engine. Give it some room" encourages the soul to heal and expand by allowing the self to take more risks and open up to new experiences.
The second half of the song continues with the theme of growth and self-improvement by urging the mind to "pick up your pace, capture the thoughts you always chase" and urging the soul to "open your wings, lift this cage higher than any dream." The chorus repeats the first half of the song, providing a sort of mantra for listeners to internalize and repeat to themselves in order to enact change in their own lives.
In conclusion, "Cover Your Tracks" is a song about self-improvement and taking ownership of one's life. The lyrics speak to the need to heal past wounds, take risks and grow, and to always strive to be the best version of oneself.
