Call you up in the middle of the night,
|
Like a firefly without a light,
|
You were there like a slow torch 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,
|
Promise myself I wouldn't breathe,
|
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,
|
Lead myself astray.
|
|
Runaway train never going back,
|
Runaway on a one way track,
|
Seems like we 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,
|
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 drowning 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.
|
(yeah, yeah)
|
|
Runaway train never going back,
|
Runaway on a one way track,
|
Seems like I should be getting somewhere,
|
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
|
|
[INSTRUMENTAL]
|
|
Bought a ticket for a runaway train,
|
I came back there laughing at the rain,
|
A little out of touch a little insane,
|
Just easier than dealing with the pain.
|
|
Runaway train never going back,
|
Runaway on a one way track,
|
Seems like I should be getting somewhere,
|
Somehow I'm neither here nor there.
|
|
Runaway train never going back,
|
Runaway train's heading up the track,
|
Runaway train burning in my veins,
|
Runaway but it all seems the same.
|
|
(Runaway, runaway)
