Where were you? We faded out the other day

 Make up new wounds to count and contemplate
 Hear that lonesome whistle blowin'
 Just for you and you alone
 Lightning speed to nowhere it's your lucky day

 Can't believe the nerve of that proceeding verse

 Worse than where you are is that you got there first
 Sure you can reverse
 Turn a blessing to a curse

 Lightning train to nowhere in the universe

 Stressing every syllable of your complaint
 Can't they tell the difference
 Between passengers and freight?
 Cursing the conductor then
 We try our luck again
 Lightning speed to nowhere but oblivion

 Pictures play in place all day
 They never leave their wall
 They stand against it
 And when they talk
 They do so it can hear
 For they know
 That their wall has ears
 All ears, all ears

 Swatting at the smoke rings in the dining car

 Speculation station is that where we are?
 Plenty Of Conjecture
 Would you like to give a lecture?
 Lightning train to anywhere but very far

 Lightning Speed to nowhere but obscurity
 Only destination is the scenery
 Hear that lonesome whistle blowin'
 Just for you and you alone
 Lightning train illusion of Velocity
