I hope this old train breaks down 00:13

Then I could take a walk around 00:16

See what there is to see 00:21

Time is just a melody 00:23

With all the people in the street 00:25

Walking fast as their feet can take them 00:27

I just roll through town 00:29

And though my windows got a view 00:31

Well the frame I'm looking through 00:33

Seems to have no concern for now 00:35

So for now I 00:38

I need this 00:39

Old train to breakdown 00:42

Oh please just 00:45

Let me please breakdown 00:48

00:51

Well this engine screams out loud 01:04

Saying this beat gonna crawl westbound 01:07

So I don't even make a sound 01:11

Because it's gonna sting me when I leave this town 01:13

And all the people in the street 01:17

That I'll never get to meet 01:18

If these tracks dont bend somehow 01:19

And I got no town 01:24

That I got to get 01:25

To where I don't need to be 01:26

So I 01:29

I need this 01:31

Old train to breakdown 01:34

Oh please just 01:37

Let me please breakdown 01:39

I need this 01:43

Old train to breakdown 01:46

Oh please just 01:50

Let me please breakdown 01:54

I want break on down 01:57

But I can't stop now 02:02

Let me break in down 02:04

But you can't stop nothing 02:08

If you got no control 02:09

Of the thoughts in your mind 02:11

That you kept and you know 02:13

You don't know nothing 02:15

But you don't need to know 02:16

The wisdom's in the trees 02:18

Not the glass windows 02:20

You can't stop wishing 02:21

If you don't let go 02:22

Of the things that you find 02:24

And you lose, and you know 02:25

You keep on rolling 02:27

Put the moment on hold 02:29

The frame's too bright 02:30

Put the blinds down low 02:32

I need this 02:34

Old train to breakdown 02:37

Oh please just 02:41

Let me please breakdown 02:43

I need this 02:47

Old train to breakdown 02:50

Oh please just 02:54

Let me please breakdown 02:56

Lyrics:

[English]

I hope this old train breaks down

Then I could take a walk around

See what there is to see

Time is just a melody

With all the people in the street

Walking fast as their feet can take them

I just roll through town

And though my windows got a view

Well the frame I'm looking through

Seems to have no concern for now

So for now I

I need this

Old train to breakdown

Oh please just

Let me please breakdown

...

Well this engine screams out loud

Saying this beat gonna crawl westbound

So I don't even make a sound

Because it's gonna sting me when I leave this town

And all the people in the street

That I'll never get to meet

If these tracks dont bend somehow

And I got no town

That I got to get

To where I don't need to be

So I

I need this

Old train to breakdown

Oh please just

Let me please breakdown

I need this

Old train to breakdown

Oh please just

Let me please breakdown

I want break on down

But I can't stop now

Let me break in down

But you can't stop nothing

If you got no control

Of the thoughts in your mind

That you kept and you know

You don't know nothing

But you don't need to know

The wisdom's in the trees

Not the glass windows

You can't stop wishing

If you don't let go

Of the things that you find

And you lose, and you know

You keep on rolling

Put the moment on hold

The frame's too bright

Put the blinds down low

I need this

Old train to breakdown

Oh please just

Let me please breakdown

I need this

Old train to breakdown

Oh please just

Let me please breakdown

...

I want break on down

But I can't stop now
