Hello my only friend hello old stranger
Looks like we meet again I think I'm in danger

This life ain't no fairy tale the world's so misleading
I'm searchin' for peace of mind 'cause my soul is bleeding

The spirits they told me when times get tough
Don't just run away
The spirits they showed me that it's alright
Confusion ain't worth the price of your life

The mind is like a runaway train
When the heart's off the beaten track
So ride on in your runaway train
Sanctuary waits but there's no turning back

Goodbye to all I feel goodbye to love
This time I'm trapped by emotions that I can't rise above

So where can I run to now tell me where can I go
When life's just a page in time just a stepping stone

The spirits they told me when times get tough
Don't just run away
The spirtits they showed me that it's alright
Confusion ain't worth the price of your life

The mind is like a runaway train
When the heart's off the beaten track
So ride on in your runaway train
Sanctuary waits but there's no turning back

I need to make a change 'cause it's raining in my heart
I know there's someplace waiting
To ease my mind and free my soul

The mind is like a runaway train
When the heart's off the beaten track
So ride on in your runaway train
Sanctuary waits but there's no turning ba
