He looked them in the eyes and he knew that they were gone
Just a gang of restless hearts and the beat of one good song
The train tracks ran through the middle of the earth
Chase them to the river's edge just to see what they were worth
A few messages a day to see if they were still alive
Counting down the minutes to the bell that sounded right on time
And he said to his friend man I'm walking out the door
I keep spinning my wheels I know that we were meant for more
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There's nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done
We can't get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let's move along
We're burning through the scenes like a film we used to know
And we're living in a dream hoping we don't have to go
No I won't stop now dodging trains that come our way
The devil in the night will lead us to a brand new day
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There's nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done
We can't get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let's move along
And I'm wondering where this all will lead
If I'm fighting this alone
Then I turn and see these kids stand right by me
And I know we're walking down that same old road
Not letting go
What do you say
We chase our dreams and run
There's nothing left here for us now
Skin it man forget the past somehow
What's done is done
We can't get it back
So follow me across these tracks
We'll live like thieves who fight the setting sun
Let's move along
Oh I'm too deep into this so I'm long gone
Let's move along
