Runaway Train ~Soul Asylum~





Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a blowtorch 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 I promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I can'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 let myself astray Runaway train, never coming back Wrong way on a one-way track It 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? 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 seems cut and dry Day and night, Earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it I got a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughing at the rain A little bit out of touch, a little insane It's just easier than dealing with the pain Runaway train, never coming back Runaway train, tearing up the track Runaway train, burning in my face I run away but it always seems to stay...
