|
Call you up in the middle of the night |
|
Like a firefly without a light |
|
You were there like a slowtorch burning |
|
Was a key that could use a little turning |
|
|
|
So tired that I couldn't eat or sleep |
|
So many secrets I couldn't keep |
|
I 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 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 somehow all seem worthwhile |
|
How on earth did I get so jaded? |
|
Last 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 |
|
|
|
And everything is cold and dry, |
|
Day and night, earth and sky, |
|
Somehow I just don't believe it |
|
|
|
Runaway train, never going back |
|
Wrong 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 |
|
Just easier than dealing with the pain |
|
|
|
Runaway train, never going back |
|
Wrong 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 tracks |
|
Runaway train, burning in my veins |
|
I run away but it always seems the same |
