Runaway Train
Sometimes I stumble, sometimes I fallThe angels of my nature won't accept the last callI stop thinking, I just reactBefore I know it everything turns blackI'm on a highway doing 90, how many dreamsOut of control and impossibly looseI'm comprehending without a clueI don't know where I'm going, I don't know what I'm gonna doI'm like a runaway trainScreaming through the back tentRoaring through the rainLike a runaway trainMaybe it's a full moon, baby, high-end tideThe fear of dying young, it makes me take that rideI start up slowly building up steamBefore I know it all is illusion, it's like I'm in a dreamNo man, no reason, nothing makes senseNo future, no past, only present tenseI'm out there floating completely aloneIn a universe of chaos indifferent as a stoneLike a runaway trainRacing to the voidRoaring through the rainSongtexteLike a runaway trainI can't explain the unexplainableWhere's the electron gonna be next?Do we really die for love and glory,Or only for wealth and sex?Is there a reason why I'm on this road?Is it random or ordained?Is everyone in the world dead today?Am I the only that's saved?We approach the speed of light, we approach infinite massWe can't cross over, all our future becomes the pastIt's nice to know those limits, nice to know those wallsBut when you're on a bender you don't care about that at allThere's only moving forward, picking up speedMoving feels like freedom, sometimes that's all you needThere's the wind in your hair, the cold on your braNothing else matters, you're alive right nowLike a runaway trainRaging through the dark nightRoaring 'gainst the grainLike a runaway trainOh, runaway trainOh, like a trainRunaway trainRunaway trainRunaway trainRunaway train Aus Songtexte Mania
