Golden Train

Just like a star that can't be seen

From your city at night

You can't build a wall as high or steep

As mountains have climbed

Cuz these aren't owned

And never will be

So keep going on replacing each

Until the lonely shores retreat

And ocean's refined

It happens all the time

You measured the holes you made between

The land that you dried

But these aren't all the lakes and fields

You came here to find

You live in a corner

That faces away

Not in a world with shades of gray

And while the whirlwind shakes your feet

Another's arrived

It happens all the time

An old design that can't be traced

Or shown on walls to contemplate

If ever there was only one escape route

Past the golden train

Moving through the plains

Ever since it came

We've been living strange

And i've forgotten time

As soon as the ghosts return from sleep

There's nothing alive

Cuz you made the roads and mazes deep

For all you can hide

A treasure to keep

And never be shared

To breathe in a fortune as in air (an heir)

Until the moon and sun can meet

They'll follow you blind

A never ending sight

The new recruit to end the war

Has soldiers with, they're sending more

The cavalry is making sure

No one can stop the golden train

Lines are built and rails can carry you

Past those who would surely bury you

Animals have scared and run from men

Crossed the sea to never think again
