call you up in the middle of the night
like a firefly without a light
you were there like a slow 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
just another promise i couldn't keep
it seems no one can help me now
i'm in too deep
there's no way out
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?
somehow make it all seem worthwhile?
how on earth did i get so jaded
life's mysteries seem so faded..
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..
