Soul Asylum - Runaway Train
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a fire, fire without a light.
You were there like a blow torch burning,
I was a key that could use a little turning.
So tired that I couldn't even sleep,
So many secrets I couldn't keep.
Promised myself I wouldn't weep,
One more promise I couldn't keep.
It seems no one can help me now,
I'm in too deep there's no way out.
This time I have really led myself astray.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere,
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it all somehow seem worthwhile.
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded.
I can go where no one else can go,
I know what no one else knows.
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train.
Everything is cut and dry,
Day and night, earth and sky.
Somehow I just dont believe it.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere.
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Bought a ticket for a runaway train,
Like a madman laughing at the rain.
A little out of touch a little insane.
It's just easier than dealing with the pain.
Runaway train never going back.
Wrong way on a one way track.
Seems like I should be getting somewhere.
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
Runaway train never coming back,
Runaway train tearing up the track,
Runaway train burning in my veins.
Runaway but it always seems the same. |
