The Triad - Stop This Train Lyrics

No, I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight


Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?


Don't know how else to say it
Don't want to see my parents go
I'm one generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own


Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?


So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say my life has just begun


Had a talk with my old man
Said, ""Help me understand""
He said ""Turn 68, oh, you'll re-negotiate""


""Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
Cnd don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
Honestly we'll never stop this train.""


Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
Cnd they're all still around
Cnd you're still safe and sound
Cnd you don't miss a thing
'til you cry
When you're driving away in the dark
Singing


Stop this train
I want to get off and go back home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
'Cause honestly, I'm never gonna stop this train
Never gonna stop this train
