Goodbye |
Your pocket full of dreams |
Your mind in a daze |
Keep on chasing rainbows |
Fly high |
Leave the past behind |
The dark road you take bears no escape |
In a world of grand illusions |
Where love is just a dream |
You gotta make your sacrifices |
Time to pick your poison |
The fool is he who is noble minded |
And bellies up to poverty |
He’s not a king in the world of diamonds |
Paling into oblivion |
I lay down my soul for glory |
I’ve given a life away |
Don’t know if I am sorry |
Blind me, blind me Don’t know where I’ll be going |
I gotta get away |
From the pain of recollection |
Drawn into the faint |
Hang on to a runaway train |
No turning back |
Tethered to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Torpid in the wind and rain |
No turning back |
Hang on to a runaway train |
Take me away |
If I’m a stranger to myself |
Then I better gotta stay away |
Even better gotta get away, get away |
Time to pick my poison |
Feel the devil sitting in my neck |
Straight ahead into the unknown |
Oh father I forgive you for I Don’t know what I’m doing |
It’s only human nature |
To keep away from pain |
Take a train to ecstasy oh Ride on, ride on Inhale the scent of heaven |
Respire the smell of fame |
You’ve been to hell and back |
You can’t change things anyway, no I hang on to a runaway train |
No turning back |
Tethered to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Torpid in the wind and rain |
No turning back |
I hang on to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Reaching out to rule the world |
you’ll watch the mirror shatter |
As you’ll be dazzled by the sight |
Once only diamonds mattered |
How can you justify the way |
When you wake up screaming |
Will you pretend that you were blind |
When you were really seeing |
Your image everywhere |
The looking glass: a sheet of ice |
It’s thick enough to dance on In a frozen realm of lies |
But the ice will break |
And you will scream repenting |
Oh boy the ice will break |
You’ll just feel your heart rending |
Riding on to a world of funny flowers |
Riding on to the white wide world |
If coming back would hurt my pride |
I rather take another ride |
Riding on, winter on the mirror |
Riding on into the unknown |
If i’ll awake in pain one day |
I gotta catch just one more train |
Days gone by Who’d wanna live forever |
On our knees up your road |
Paved with good intentions |
Fly high |
Where angels can’t breathe no more |
Some dare to go blind |
Some stay behind |
I hang on to a runaway train |
No turning back |
Tethered to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Torpid in the wind and rain |
No turning back |
I hang on to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Hang on to a runaway train |
No turning back |
Tethered to a runaway train |
Take me away |
Torpid in the wind and rain |
in the wind and rain |
I hang on to that runaway train |
