Kali Station

(From The Album "Pop This")

On a cold night in October
On the Oklahoma plain
Where the buffalo once wandered
But none of them remain
If you listen with your heart
If you listen with you soul
You'll hear those wheels turnin
You'll smell the burnin coal
Of a train that's running late
Pouring on the steam
Running down the tracks
Of an industrial dream
And the smoke will burn your eyes
Until it robs you of your sight
And the train just disappears
Into the cold october night

And it won't stop 'til Kali Station
Runnin for her destination
Hey I know where you're headed to
And it won't stop 'til Kali Station
Runnin for her destination
Hey I know where you're headed to

As I lay awake and listen
I can't tell if it's a dream
When somewhere in the distance
I hear that whistle scream
And it echoes in the city
It echoes in my mind
And it burns me just to think
That train is running right on time

Burn away, gone forever
I can see her there
She's here today, gone forever
