lyrics

Moving on this train, as a fool, as a fiend
As a passer by, carrying losses and the things
Crooked steps and creaky lines, each one lost through time
Spinning stories with woe begotten heroes and the narrow minded
Strange foes and bitter friends all sharing the same madness
CHORUS:
Silly shots rocking us
Comfort in this ridiculous passage of worry
Something must be said, but who wants to call attention to this horrifying dream
For Lords sake, somebody get us off of this train
Light and reflections, a never ending glass of whisky
Perhaps some other memory, who really needs to know
Nobody asks questions in this place, any question could invoke
Some strange scene where secrets lie waiting
He knew all along it was that prick from HR and he talks to no one
Strange life and bitter love sharing the same madness
CHORUS:
This is not a ship of fools
The descendants of the worst
Nobodies with no place in time
Long traveling shadows
Watching it pass on by
A silhouette of a train bound for nowhere

CHORUS:
…..Someone get us off of this train
For Lords sake, somebody get us off of this god damned train
For Lords sake, somebody get us off of this train
