Lyrics

[INTRO]

[VERSE 1]
I was standing still, on the platform high
Watching as it came, with a deafening sigh
The conductor's voice, a distant call
As the train rushed by, and I watched it fall

[CHORUS]
Runaway train, no direction to claim
Unstoppable force, with a deadly aim
No one on board, can bring it to a stand
Runaway train, leaving the tracks in hand

[VERSE 2]
Through cities and towns, it tears apart
Leaving a trail, of a broken heart
The whistle blows, a mournful sound
As the train speeds on, with no one around

[CHORUS]
Runaway train, no direction to claim
Unstoppable force, with a deadly aim
No one on board, can bring it to a stand
Runaway train, leaving the tracks in hand

[BRIDGE]
Maybe in the night, it'll slowly come to a stop
But till then, it's a force that won't drop
No mercy, no regret
The runaway train, we won't forget

[HOOK]
Runaway, runaway, with no one in control
The train keeps on rolling, to a fatal goal

[CHORUS]
Runaway train, no direction to claim
Unstoppable force, with a deadly aim
No one on board, can bring it to a stand
Runaway train, leaving the tracks in hand

[OUTRO]
The final crash, the last goodbye
The iron beast, lies still and dry
The silence falls, on the wreckage and pain
The runaway train, will never run again
