Just when we think
Life is on our side
We lose control

Off the rails we go
Into the inky blackness
Our body takes a toll

The tunnel closes up
And we can't see light
Adrift is our soul

We grasp at the emptiness
For anything to guide us
Something to make us whole

The only things that can help
Are ourselves
Only we can achieve our goal

Our life is our train
Our friends the rails
And our passion the coal

So it is up to us
To get back on track
And let our wheels roll

Life took our control
So we push forward
To take back what it stole
