Hopping The Train Lyrics

Nightsticks trail me for burning buildings

My skin is torn by the hands of tall trees

And I breathe for moments, dodging with my tricks

I've dreamt my nowhere and I feel homesick

Smoke in plumes approaches fast with the ring of a funeral bell

Now's my time to hitch this ride, befall this land with my own spell

Hey, everyone! the circus is in town!

See the amusements, the best ones around!

Bounty on my head

Bounty on my head

Power in my hands and they won't stop hunting me

Another place to call my own

Roaring applause from the audience

"Welcome to the show!"

Bounty on my head

Bounty on my head

Power in my hands and they won't stop hunting me

I wish I had saved her

From what she's been fed

Took up her hand, instead

Left her for dead

Is this my fault?

Is it all in my head?

I need...

I need...

Silence warming

Rails lay 'fore me

Rushing cold's what keeps me company

The souls that lie deep

Are now all mine to keep

This stillness lies in a raging apathy

At long last, my getaway

From a lifetime that I have despised

I'll take my place on center stage

To announce to the world

"Right before your melting eyes!"

Hey, everyone! the circus is in town!

See the amusements, the best ones around!

Bounty on my head

Bounty on my head

Power in my hands and they won't stop hunting me

Another place to call my own

Roaring applause from the audience

"Welcome to the show!"

Bounty on my head

Bounty on my head

Power in my hands and they won't stop hunting me

I've gone off my rails

I think I've gone mad

Using this magic is all that I had

What can I do to have it all back?

Give me answers

"You exhausted your power for all your spite

For that, you must pay with half of your sight

Suffer with this

And soon you will get

All of the gains of your revenge"
