Gimme the power to know, gimme the strength to go
I don't wanna have this lowdown feeling anymore
Meet me at the station where the old train whistle blows
Meet me at the last stop on the line
I don't wanna spend my days chipping away at this statue
I'd rather tear it down and start again
Late one eve when the moon was high I found a parish on a hill
Would the sun ever rise for me?
I stood still as a statue, stiller even than stone
Bathed in the light of a hundred sins
But people can change you know
I took one look at the cold hard ground
And the gathering storm ahead
All around me the devils did dance
With the spirits of the dead
I spent my time with whiskey and wine,
Debts were growing one day at a time
The life I chose was no-one else's but mine
Gimme the power to know, gimme the strength to go
I don't wanna have this lowdown feeling anymore
Meet me at the station where the old train whistle blows
Meet me at the last stop on the line
