lyrics

Freight train comin’ bolt from the blue I got my mind set right on you
Big smoke callin’ it’d drive you insane can’t think straight for the haze in my brain
Heart break stations I’ve been here before but I can’t place you on the killing floor
Shadows all around me and I can’t breathe it’s a nightmare in stone but its the same old dream

I set off familiar rail road track ain’t no time for regrets ain’t no turnin’ back
Million miles an hour through the street I’m in, in the land of sorrow in the land of sin
The devil is callin’ but I am blind love’s tunnel vision or so I find
Highway star calls my name out loud life in London’s just a black smoke cloud

People doin’ the talkin I can’t hear what they say this life in London ain’t swingin’ my way
I’m tryin’ to make a livin’ they said the money’s sweet but it ain’t my style and I’m feelin’ the heat
It can’t be fast enough I gotta get outta here sell your soul for nothin’ you got nothin’ to fear
London through the looking glass it ain’t what it seems carry the scars of the nightmares street of dreams
