Waiting on the Train

You know i
i spend way too much time
waiting on this train to come
to take me away

Every morning 
it's the same old thing
looking my reflection in the eye
trying to convince myself
to have some hope
to give it one more try

I know i'm broken inside
i just don't have any more heart
you see i'm always giving it away
way too soon

I'm just fooling myself 
pretending
it's gonna come back 
ya..some day

You know i
i spend way too much time
waiting on this train to come
to take me away

So i bought my ticket
ya i keep it close to my heart
don't want to lose it
don't want to lose it

I know..yes i know
i'll need it someday

Oh i'm just a crazy fool
holding on to hope
like a child...with a spoon

I know i'm only pretending
but i hope..yes i hope 
it will be here... tomorrow
but today would be great

Every morning 
it's the same old thing
looking my reflection in the eye
trying to convince myself
to have some hope
to give it one more try

I know i'm broken inside
i just don't have any more heart
you see i'm always giving it away
way too soon
oh i'm just a fool
holding on to hope

You know i 
don't want to give it up
they'll say i went to my grave
waiting for it to return

Believing...believing
believing in my dream

They say everyone's got a silver string
it's what ties and guides their fate

You can hold on to anything
but you can't stop the leaks

I'm just fooling myself 
pretending
it's gonna come back 
ya..some day

You know i
i spend way too much time
waiting on this train to come
to take me away

So i bought my ticket
ya i keep it close to my heart
don't want to lose it
don't want to lose it

I know..yes i know
cuz i'll need it someday

Not gonna let it go
not gonna let it go
no...no..no

Just waiting on this train to come
just waiting on this train to come

It's so far away
but it will be here soon
