V1:
|
I hear the sound of a freight train rollin through my dreams
|
It's full of yesterday's baggage and chasing after me
|
No matter where I turn I can smell that engine burn
|
|
I keep a runnin from that freight train trying to escape my past
|
But the smoke clouds up my future and the freedom doesn't last
|
Somebody tell me how I can turn this thing around
|
Chorus:
|
Cause there's a chain around my neck and the weight of this worlds on my back
|
Memories and regrets that set my mind off track
|
So many things I need to unload to give myself some peace
|
Cause I know if I don't that train's gonna roll all over me
|
|
V2:
|
I've been stuck at this station in Atlanta praying that the phone will ring
|
Staring at the stranger in the mirror. I miss the man he used to be
|
I can't even count the mistakes that brought me to this place
|
|
Bridge:
|
I've got to get my feet back on the ground
|
I can't let my burdens drag me down
|
