A Train Wreck Lyrics

We conquered the forests
Tore over streams
Thundered through archways
Struck blind by the steam

We howl in the darkness
Cower under stars
The rain sodden redwoods
Wet pines in the dark

A train wreck, a train wreck, a train wreck

We crawled from the wreckage
Kissed in the snow
Glistening mountains
We've found our new home

Derailed in the snowdrift
We'll seed the plateau
Suck sap from the fir trees
Fashion new clothes

I tried & I tried to regain some control
It's a nightmare
We forge through the valley
& wrestle the wheel
A slow-motion accident twisted in steel

I can't stop the train, I can't stop the train
Familiar mountains, the smoothest terrain
I can't stop the train, I can't stop the train
We're lost in the darkness, it all looks the same

A train wreck, a train wreck, a train wreck

We conquered the forests
Tore over streams
Thundered through archways
Struck blind by the steam

We howl in the darkness
Cower under stars
The rain sodden redwoods
Wet pines in the dark

I tried & I tried to regain some control
It's a nightmare
We forge through the valley
& wrestle the wheel
A slow-motion accident twisted in steel

I can't stop the train, I can't stop the train
Familiar mountains, the smoothest terrain
I can't stop the train, I can't stop the train
We're lost in the darkness, it all looks the same

A train wreck, a train wreck, a train wreck
