"Train Of Thought" lyrics

There's a train in the sky, in the middle of my mind
And it's flying off a one-way track
And I try to button up my suit and tie
In an attempt to hold it back
But there's this strange old conductor
Wearing pearls and a backwards baseball cap

There's a shoe on the floor, crackin' open the door
To the banned book of my heart
And I'm just peekin' through the darkness
Waiting for the end to start
And there's a strange librarian
Smashin' all the windows of her car

Sometimes the river don't flow
Sometimes the eye of the storm has a glow
Like a north star
Or a small-town bar
Or a cheat code

Sometimes you can't see the road
Or the bright yellow phlegm in the back of your throat
Everything hides
In plain sight
Like the wind blows

There's an old man sitting by the podium stand
With hazy far-off eyes
And he's just giggling like a little girl
Who just spoiled her own surprise
And he says, "Oh please
Stop looking at me
I'm getting dizzy"

There's a couple scars on this here guitar
About a hundred on my skin
I love to take a fall, miss your call
And then get back up again
I'm getting too free for you to like me
But I'll still let you in

Sometimes the river don't flow
Sometimes the eye of the storm has a glow
Like a north star
Or a small-town bar
Or a cheat code

Sometimes you can't see the road
Or the bright yellow phlegm in the back of your throat
Everything hides
In plain sight
Like the wind blows

There's a train in the sky, in the middle of my mind
And it's flying off a one-way track
And they try to button and up my suit and tie
In an attempt to hold me back
But I'm this strange old conductor
Wearing pearls and a backwards baseball cap
