It’s hard feelings - it’s everybody’s feelings
It’s everything we wanted to grow
The ground choked up, the cigarettes all smoked up
The fires raging out of control
The Earth strangled - deals that we wrangled
The bodies that we dropped in a hole
The hot anger, the ever present danger
Get out my way ‘cos I’m on a roll
I’m stuck on a runaway train, what can I do about it?
Over the rocky terrain
Stuck on a runaway train, I want to shout about it
Want you to put on the brakes
Tomorrow keeps coming, so where are you running?
There’s no time to hurry, and now it’s much too late to worry
It’s my problem - it’s everybody’s problem
We’ve taken everything we can take
Consumption, arrogant assumptions
We’re never going to see the mistake
Am I dreaming, is everybody dreaming?
Alarms are ringing, no one’s awake
The smoke’s thicker, the train is getting quicker
Everything is starting to shake
I’m stuck on a runaway train, what can I do about it?
Over the rocky terrain
Stuck on a runaway train, I want to shout about it
Want you to put on the brakes
Tomorrow keeps coming, so where are you running?
There’s no time to hurry, and now it’s much too late to worry
Stuck on a runaway train
Over the rocky terrain
Stuck on a runaway train
Want you to put on the brakes
