Surprise Attack - Train of Thought Lyrics

When your train starts a rollin
And the whistle catches your wistful ear
There's no hope in controllin'
Where the tracks may lead and if you'll end up far or near
But if you take the time in the by and by and open up your mind
You might find
That the road is open, here's to hopin'
Now grab a slice of pie

Go for the brakes, but you can't find the line
Flying off the rails one thought at a time
Grinding of the wheels against the way that you feel,
Welcome to the modern mind
Colors muted, days diluted
What was once freedom now convoluted
Looking up, you see the tunnel now
Dark times ahead til you bring yourself around

Rise, from your waking sleep of days
Sun beating down to burn away the haze
Staring through the thin pane of glass
Wind blowing fast creates waves in the grass
Now that you're grown, tracks take you home, to where you're not alone
Where you've always known
That the road is open, here's to hopin'
Now grab a slice of pie
