I hope this old train breaks down,
So I could take a walk around
And, see what there is to see
And time is just a melody

With all the people in the street
Walk as fast as their feet can take them
I just roll through town
And though my window’s got a view, well

The frame I’m looking through
Seems to have no concern for now, so for now
I need this old train to breakdown,
oh please just let me please breakdown


This engine screams out loud.
centipede gonna crawl westbound
So I don’t even make a sound
It’s gonna sting me when I leave this town

All the people in the street, that I’ll never get to meet
If these tracks don’t bend some-how
And I got no time, that I got to get to
Where I don’t need to be, so I

I need this old train to breakdown,
oh please just let me please breakdown
I need this old train to breakdown,
oh please just let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down but I cant stop now
Let me break on down

But you can’t stop nothing, if you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind that you kept in, you know
You don’t know nothing, but you don’t need to know
The wisdoms in the trees not the glass windows

You can’t stop wishing if you don’t let go
But things that you find and you lose, and you know
You keep on rolling. put the moment on hold
The frames too bright, so put the blinds down low

I need this old train to breakdown,
Oh please just let me please breakdown
I need this old train to breakdown,
Oh please just let me please breakdown

I wanna break on down
But I cant stop now
