A roaring train pa**ed by window pane in the middle of the night.
It took its toll as it should my soul,
going at the speed of light.
My eyes rolled back in a Cadillac as it raced me to my fate,
Shot through the rain, straight in my vein.
No time to hesitate.
In know your name, I know your pain.
I've been there once before.
Through the doubt there is an out,
I know the open door.
Took a knife up against my life to end all that I know.
Through the tears, in the fears, I wondered where I'd go.
My eyes were shut as the razor cut,
to take away the pain.
Blood ran fast of a regretful past,
I couldn't clean the stain.
Took a ride with wide open eyes,
to see what I could see.
Met a man with love-scarred hands,
who was nailed to a tree.
Heaven's not a place forgot,
I've hid it in my heart
to arrange some kind of change and have a brand new start.
