Train Home

Take a look inside

I got nothin' left to hide

Take me as I am

Not what I wanna be

The why we'll never know, we passed that long ago

Is and was is all we're ever gonna be

He's almost shade, down by the river

Feels a breath that makes him shiver

Takes a breath and makes a dive alone

But the dead don't get no vacation

Down in that subway station

The only break they take is to the bone

They're waitin' on a train to take 'em home

Yeah, they're waitin' on a train, yeah, to take 'em home

I don't think I see much of anything for me

In visions of the past or the ever-after

Now is what can be

All the rest is wait and see

Those prophets never hear that cosmic laughter

And gypsies in their wagons rollin'

Never hear those death bells tollin'

Never take no notice of the tone

But I do, and my pulse beats quicker

Scornful laughs and knowing snickers

Stop my heart and sink it like a stone

And I'm waitin' on a train to take me home

And I'm waitin' on a train to take me home

This ain't what it seems, it's not the stuff of dreams

Nothing is as clear as this confusion

The somewhat welcome news

Is there is no way to lose

Because what isn't real is genuine illusion

And it's all about that graveyard dancin'

Some sit still, some still prancin'

Some get caught between them in the zone

Where there's nothin' left to give 'em cover

If they can't even see each other

They just step and stumble on their own

They're waitin' on a train to take 'em home

Yeah, they're waitin' on a train

I'm waitin' on a train

We all waitin' on that train to take us home
