lyrics

How many times must I wake up with the feeling
Of being somewhere that I don’t want to be?
When every morning starts my heartrate is fast
And the pressure is dropping unexpectedly

How many problems must I wake up to today?
With no one beside me and with disease in my veins
How can I move when my body has stopped?
Like racing to nowhere on a broken down train

That never stops, but never moves
It holds you back while chasing you

How many people must I lie to today?
By wearing a smile borrowed from better days
Anyone would help, but they don’t know what to do
And I don’t know what to ask for, but I thank them anyway

So I go on my weary way, with my destination in view
Anywhere but here and preferably for two
How much for a ticket? My bank account is strained
Can I ride first class on this broken down train?

It never stops, it never stops
It never stops, it never stops
