Freight Train -

I hear the sound of a freight train rollin through my dreams

It’s full of yesterday’s baggage and chasing after me

No matter where I turn I can smell that engine burn

I keep a runnin from that freight train trying to escape my past

But the smoke clouds up my future and the freedom doesn’t last

Somebody tell me how I can turn this thing around

Chorus:

Cause there’s a chain around my neck and the weight of this worlds on my back

Memories and regrets that set my mind off track

So many things I need to unload to give myself some peace

Cause I know if I don’t that train’s gonna roll all over me

I’ve been stuck at this station in Atlanta praying that the phone will ring

Staring at the stranger in the mirror.

I miss the man he used to be

I can’t even count the mistakes that brought me to this place

Bridge:

I’ve got to get my feet back on the ground

I can’t let my burdens drag me down
