Another night over
Another day dawning
Another year is gone
And I don't know what I've done
Shake me wake me, please don't
Let me slip away
I need a life injection to make it through today
Shake me, wake me, please don't
Let me slip away
I need a resurrection
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
All I want is all you've got
You're everything that I am not
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
The sickness I pass on to you
My eternal jealousy of youth
Take me by the hand and
Lead me through this desert land
To a secret world a million miles away
Where the grass is greener
Where the faces have names
I feel my spirit's gone
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
All I want is all you've got
You're everything that I am not
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
The sickness I pass on to you
My eternal jealousy of youth
You keep holding on to your convictions
Though nothing ins written in stone
You refuse a change of your position
Until your cocoon explodes
Till your cocoon explodes
I can't let go I told you so
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
Life is rolling like a speedtrain
With no mercy, no mercy
Ah, ah
I can't let go I told you so
