listen to the trains, they haunt you in dreams
life seems like another unraveling seam
the ghost of what you were, unable to leave
you’ve run out of excuses to believe
walk down to the station, the station isn’t there
kick the dirt, just pacing below sun’s heartless glare
tracks rusted and broken, useless as a missing part
it’s got no answers or fresh starts
come to me, oh come to me
cry like absent rain
come to me and stop wasting time
listening to trains
clouds descend, like a murder of crows
ways you’ve failed, lies you’ve been told
wild and stuck inside of something you can’t tame
it’ll keep taunting until you learn its name
come to me, oh come to me
come out of the rain
come to me and stop wasting time
listening to trains
