Runaway Train by 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 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 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?
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 a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

And everything seems cut and dried,
Day and night, earth and sky,
Somehow i just don't believe it

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

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain

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

Runaway train, never coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always seems the same
