Steve Verba - (You Can't Stop) A Runaway Train

Seems we always start out
Against a backdrop of innocence
Faded, mixed emotions
With a touch of bad influence
Give into temptation
To exercise your soul
But one thing always leads to another
Suddenly you’ve lost control
Down the line there were times
I never thought I’d make it back
A lost train conductor
On the wrong side of the track
Riding shotgun with the devil
Riding high to a fall
I landed safely but I go crazy
When I hear the whistle call
All aboard a train to nowhere
Satan’s potion pounding through my veins
Face the facts, there ain’t no turning back
Cause you can’t stop a runaway train
Jessie was a real fine fella
A sentimental lad
Heart and soul, a real blood brother
The best friend I ever had
But Jessie went a bit too far
Got in over his head
Took a ride on that train
I never saw him again
All aboard a train to nowhere
Satan’s potion pounding through my veins
Face the facts, there ain’t no turning back
Cause you can’t stop a runaway train
All aboard a train to nowhere
Satan’s potion pounding through my veins
Face the facts, there ain’t no turning back
Cause you can’t stop a runaway train
Down the line there were times
I never thought I’d make it back
A lost train conductor
On the wrong side of the track
Riding shotgun with the devil
Riding high to a fall
I landed safely but I go crazy
When I hear the whistle call
All aboard a train to nowhere
Satan’s potion pounding through my veins
Face the facts, there ain’t no turning back
Cause you can’t stop a runaway train
A runaway train
