Lyrics:
3356 Romeo
I’m drifting again, aloft in the clouds
Held up on the winds My mind grows hazy
I forget my pills But I found the key
The last time we were up here together You said you can’t come to save me
Chorus A:
3356 Romeo, I click the mic seven times
3356 Romeo, hear my call and please reply
It’s getting too dark out
All the old maps were wrong
The new arteries swollen
Flip the transponder on
The lights flickerin amber
Just a walk back through town
Out of the grasp of the stars
Lookin’ for the white o’er the red now
Chorus B:
3356 Romeo, I click the mic seven times
3356 Romeo, hear my call and please reply
3356 Romeo, the cabin fillin’ up with white
3356 Romeo, I click the mic seven times
I’m estranged from these skies
In the air was I born
Foreign at these heights
A sparrow to this storm
The ceiling is droppin’
Cumulonimbus risin’
On the instrument panel – the only place left I see horizon
I know this canopy Holy
Touch my dead-weather eyes
The Name you gave me escaped me
But I still got the Call-Sign
Chorus C:
3356 Romeo, I click the mic seven times
3356 Romeo, hear my call and please reply
3356 Romeo, the cabin fills up with white
3356 Romeo, the Name you gave me escaped me, but I still got the Call-Sign
You’re a Train
You’re a train, you move slowly, but you go
You’re a train, what you take only you know
A train, you go crawlin’ through town
A train, you make a lonely, lonely sound
A train, you’re a single-file wall
A train, somethin’ heavy that you haul
A train, you drive through the night
A train, gonna get there just in time
A train…
Now you’re a train, you lumber and you lurch
A train, you might scream but you don’t hurt
A train, every played upon by forces
A train, you can’t just stop 10,000Horses
A train, it’s the run-up to the stretches
A train, comin’ inches from the ledges
You’re a train, roll on through – don’t cause a scene
You’re a train, ah you said the words, but they’re Machine
A train…
Now you’re a train, ain’t you bigger than the rest
You’re a train, a ragin’ storm out in the West
You’re a train, singin’ for the fallen flags
You’re a train, just one more minute Appalachia
You’re a train, they keep you goin round and round
You’re a train, you can’t get lost but only found
A train, come on Diesel, you ain’t no Steam
You’re a train, might fall in love, but you’re Machine
