If I had the guts I'd go right now,
Leave and not say, sorry I couldn't make it
But I don't have the guts
So I'm riding on this train, riding on this train, riding on this train
I'm riding all day, all day, all day

Just when you think it couldn't get worse
Well, it can always get a little worse
Now I think Ive seen it all, I really do
I'm riding on this train, riding on this train, riding on this train
I'm riding all day, all day, all day

You know I never get anywhere
Just go back and forth
I'm a freak at the station, and I don't know why
I have nothing in common with any other human being
And I used to know something but it wasn't real
Now I know nothing and you know how that feels
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go, I'm all packed and ready to go
But I don't have the guts to

Last night I felt my soul reaching through my shoulders out
It wants out, it wants out of this earthly hell
And I know you can make it into something
I know and you do it so well
But I'm lost and I've always been
I'm giving up hope, I don't know how to

People look at me cross-eyed and I know I've really lost my mind
Everybody's a little too kind, a little too blind

See, rhyming's a terrible symptom of true madness
I'm going to make myself a tin-foil hat
Keep the currents from driving me batty
If I had the guts, if I had the guts, If I had them I'd be gone
I'd be sailing throuh the heavens, through the rain
And I imagine there'd be this lifting of my spirit
Erasing of this pain, and I'd go,
Oh, this is it
I'm ready to go, Im ready to go, I'm ready to go
I'm riding on this train all day, all day, all day
