The Setting Sun - I Like Trains

I tease it to forget when you have seen it all before

I will be going through the motions as I lead you at the bar

You can get drinks and I will bring this city to its knees

I’ve got the answers up my sleeve

And I’ll go toe to toe with your success

Trading blow for blow

I will lose one hope

Withering but beautiful career

For this exercise in patience

For this glorious mess

Take it back to beginning

Tired of color to demise

Give us something to believe in

Give us something we can trust

I will be dressed for the occasion

All I touch will turn to dust

And it isn’t quite the same way

You’ve seen how the trick is done

You can feed me to the masses

It this cold thing sets it off

To fill those spaces in-between

You can wave and wait to see

But there is no waste for the memory

And there’s no room for the weak

And I’ll go toe to toe with your success

Trading blow for blow

I will lose one hope

Withering but beautiful career

For this exercise in me

For this glorious mess

Take it back to the beginning

Tie our colors to the mast

And I’ll go toe to toe with your success

Trading blow for blow

I will lose one hope

Withering but beautiful career

For this exercise in patience

For this glorious mess

Take it back to go away

Tired of color to demise
