Traincar
Summer heat through the porch screen
Like time through my lungs
I am overcome with your memory
There's a stain on my hands of gasoline and sand
And the night comes again without asking
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
And the change comes like the splitting of wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for you to find what comes after
Spare change in my pocket falling from my jeans
You are fading from my dreams with each sunrise
Hot water screaming over the silence in my house
Will someone get me out of this meltdown?
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
And the change comes like the splitting of the wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for me to find
Write the words, memorize the frame
It's so bittersweet to leave you again
I left Houston on a Sunday and I just can't explain
Feels like a drug in my veins
All this changing, all this changing
And the change comes like the splitting of the wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for me to find what comes after
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
Traincar running off the tracks
Like a train car running off the tracks
Like time through my lungs
I am overcome with your memory
There's a stain on my hands of gasoline and sand
And the night comes again without asking
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
And the change comes like the splitting of wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for you to find what comes after
Spare change in my pocket falling from my jeans
You are fading from my dreams with each sunrise
Hot water screaming over the silence in my house
Will someone get me out of this meltdown?
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
And the change comes like the splitting of the wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for me to find
Write the words, memorize the frame
It's so bittersweet to leave you again
I left Houston on a Sunday and I just can't explain
Feels like a drug in my veins
All this changing, all this changing
And the change comes like the splitting of the wood
Like the plow blade turns the soil on the ground
Change comes like it should
You gotta die before you live
Something's gotta give for me to find what comes after
Like a traincar running off the tracks
You can run behind, but you cannot get it back
Traincar running off the tracks
Like a train car running off the tracks
