Locomotive

 

No sleep, your countenance fallen

Turned white as a sheet in the face of the rain grown colder

The wallflower waltzin’,

The locomotive crawlin’

Blood on the wheels where the rust don’t stain

Your self-chosen cure is your self-chosen pain

 

No time to ride on the back of a beast such as suicide

Johnny, come lately,

The black light suits you baby

 

Too sweet, it’s there for the killing

Lyin’ there at your feet, but the face in the mirror’s grown older

A bell’s distant ringin’, the scorpion stingin’

Wheel’s making noise, but your mind don’t care

The world’s screaming in like you’re not even there

 

You slide, inside

To the back of a train they call “suicide”

Johnny, come lately,

You know the black light suits you baby

 

You slide, inside

To the back of a train they call “suicide”

Johnny, come lately,

You know the black light suits you baby

 

No time to ride on the back of a beast such as suicide

Johnny, come lately,

You know the black light suits you baby
