Crash This Train (Acoustic)

I hope you find what you're looking for

All comes runnin' down

Hope you find it painted black on your window

Or the lips of your lovers frown

'Cause if it dies in the cold when the clouds start to roll

Is it then that your soul starts to bleed?

Have you ever seen the president who killed your wounded child?

Or the man that crashed your sister's plane

Claimin' he was sent of God?

And when she died in your arms that night in the dark

Did you pray to your God to come home?

'Cause it ain't fair to say that these tracks are the same

So God, if you can hear me, crash this train

I said, God, if you can hear me, crash this train

Now a note to the president and the government

And the judges of this place

We're still waitin' for you to bring our troops home

Clean up that mess you made

'Cause it smells of blood and money and oil across the Iraqi land

But it seems so easy here to blind us with your united we stand

It ain't hard to see that this country ain't free

So God, if you can hear me, crash this train

I said, God, if you can hear me, crash this train

To the mothers and the fathers who've done the best they could

'Cause raisin' young ones in a messed up world, it ain't so understood

So I'll cover my ears, I'll cover my eyes, pretend that loves the same

And with one courts signature, we all become erased

And it ain't hard to tell

When it's love we sell

So God, if you can hear me, crash this train

I said, God, if you can hear me, crash this train

I said, God, if you can hear me, crash this train

I said, my God, if you can hear me, crash this train

Oh
