A Rotterdam November Trainwreck
Verse 1:
I could never promise I won't let you down.
I won't give my word,
You won't get hurt.
But look at the stars,
They don't always shine,
So bright.
They're above us now,
They're above us night after night.
And look at my hands now.
They look so empty without yours
Emotions are footprints in the rain,
But my heart pounds like a...
Chorus:
Train wreck,
The subway's on fire.
I'll do my best
To save what I save.
Smoke or ash,
We're never looking back.
As strong as I can,
I'll stay on the track.
Verse 2:
I don't always convey exactly the right words.
Sometimes my tongue is sharp,
And I yield it like a sword.
But do you see the waves?

Emotions are footprints in the rain,
But my heart pounds like a...
Chorus:
Train wreck,
The subway's on fire.
I'll do my best
To save what I save.
Smoke or ash,
We're never looking back.
As strong as I can,
I'll stay on the track.
Bridge:
I'm coming, for you,
I swear that it is true,
I'll let it stand like a monument,
Think of me,
When you see it,
This train will,
Be on time.
The engine is empty,
But who needs coal.
Trust me,
I can't be everything,
But I'll be here, pounding like a..
Chorus:
Train wreck,
The subway's on fire.
I'll do my best
To save what I save.
Smoke or ash,
We're never looking back.
As strong as I can,
I'll stay on the track.
