Lyrics

Take the train

Oh you have run as far as you can go

They've tied your fingers to rails of stars

Can you hear the whistle blow?

There's is no one here to beat out your brains

There's no one who'll make you cry

If your parents kill you year by year

Well here's the time to say goodbye

And it's oh so bad from far away

And it's always warm inside

There's children there

There's children there

Who will touch your face?

Who will fill your pockets?

Avoid that tangled street

And who will count the marbles there?

And who will save your penny ring?

Come and meet the angels born this day

Sleep now the night is late

Be still until this wayward bird lets go of heaven's gate
