Lyrics

There is a train that goes to nowhere Need no ticket for you to ride Put you in a car they call the sleeper It's nice and warm inside The days are never numbered The nights don't matter now Your time is no longer counted This train has got you now N Some bulk can't get off The pistons fates for you There'll be no friends with you now The ride is just for you Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Can't sit down can't stand up No one will ever show Things that used to be so real Vanish from your soul Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, yeah, you can ride The goal is never what it is The goal will never be The light stays dim a long time now It's hard for you to see Talk about the pathway Way beyond your sign Another time another mind That is the way of life Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Wanna know what it is What it's gonna be You ride this train no way out Only you and me Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, it's a one man side Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride Train that goes to nowhere You can ride, you can ride
