Call you up in the middle of the night

Like a fire flower miles away

You were there like a blow torch burnin'

I was a key that could use a little turnin' So tired that I couldn't even sleep

So many secrets I couldn't keep

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 let myself pull stray Runaway train never goin' 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 seem all worth while

How on earth did I get so jaded

Last mystery seemed so naked I can go where no one else can go

I know what no one else has known

Here I am just a drowning in the brain

With a ticket for a runaway train Everything seems judged inside

Day and night earth and sky

Somehow I just don't believe it Runaway train never goin' back

Wrong way on a one way track

Seems like I should be getting somewhere

Somehow I'm neither here nor there Want a ticket for a runaway train?

Like a madman laughin' at the rain

A little out of touch little in the brain

It's just easier to deal with the pain Runaway train never goin' 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 comin' back

Runaway train tearin' up the track

Runaway train burnin' in my veins

Run away but it always seems the same
