I woke up I heard a song I saw the smoke And I woke up To losing pace And losing time And I, I can't stop the train So I lay down on the tracks We were so young We had so long So much to learn But I was too foolish to see.. Where it went And where it goes, And I, I can't stop the train So I lay down on the tracks And I had the strength to stand and face it, While raising my hand, But I, I can't stop the train So I lay down Yeah, I lay down... Yeah, I lay down... Yeah, I lay down... And I saw the man behind the curtain And he's bearing down But I can't stop the train No I, I cant stop the train No I, I cant stop the train So I lay down on the tracks...
