I need to feel redeemed
I'm going sideways down
An ever-winding road
With an ever-unbinding load
Of a one-track mind
Of a love that's lost somehow
Of a flashing sign
I'm under the wire now
Under the wire
I'm a train down the line
Nothing left to lose or gain
But distance over time
Under the wire
Over all that we've been through
Tell me what to do to get to you, ah
I need to feel the breeze
Of a new day's dawn
I need to be released
From the cold steel rail I'm on
Shake the love for a woman
Break the emotion overdrive
Take the train to oblivion
At the crossing of our lives
Under the wire
I'm a train down the line
Nothing left to lose or gain
But distance over time
Under the wire
Over all that we've been through
Tell me what to do to get to you, ah
ย
I need to feel redeemed
I wear my heart on a grimy sleeve
I bear the pressure of oil and moving steam
Unaware of my gaining speed
I'm prepared to move ahead, or take the lead
Under the wire
I'm a train down the line
With nothing left to lose or gain
But distance over time
Under the wire
Over all that we've been through
Tell me what to do to get to you, ah
ย
I am a steel freight train
I am a train wreck, haulin' back to you
