Story Behind the Song
This song tells the story of a woman with a 'one-way' destiny trapped in a relationship with someone who will never comprehend this kind of dreaming. He is distracted by many things in his life and is frustrated that he will never be able to focus on just one thing. She won't allow him to distract her from what she is meant to do.
Lyrics
ONE WAY TRAIN
Drum roll, then silence,
Then another essay,
Of my lawful duties, and the roll that I play.
Spotlight of scrutiny, and the things that I say.
Might get evicted from this empty estate.
Everything about you pulls in different ways,
My life is a one way train.
I'm coming out of nowhere and there's no need to brake
My life is a one way train
My life is a one way train
Here is a memory, that I want you to take.
Write down on your reverie,
Seven million mistakes
Might take a miracle, for the lesson to take
'though you pushed it away
I know I'll fall into place
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
Here is a memory that I want you to take.
Write down on your reverie,
Seven million mistakes.
