[Verse 1]
Engine severs lower legs
I feel my bruised heart beating
Spinal cord remains intact
Still sending and receiving
[Verse 2]
Lying back on shoulder blades
The cargo rushing past
Missing limbs beneath the cars
Twitching on the tracks
Click clack, now handicapped
North AM transcontinental
[Verse 3]
I remember as I bleed
Certain tales of bravery
A man who's legs were trapped beneath
A fallen evergreen tree
He decided he would chop them off above the knee
Sacrifice his shins and feet to set his torso free
[Verse 4]
The luxury of having been spared the hard part
You'd think would be enough for me to pull this off
But I'm left to bleed to d**h
Now all the man I've ever been
North AM transcontinental
