[English]

Steam train, souls from the city

We know no bones from the grave

Suppose I never cared much 'bout

Who could be saved

Beware the wolves and snakes

Wrapped up tight beneath the shade

You have a lonely one along the way out

Who had no name

We tread a line in our own lane

It's a sit-down hallway

And I don't feel I know what hope is

What is this place?

Take these things away from me

They're useless bits I'll never need

Stop my breath so I'll be free

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

This pain and all your pity

You know you get your way

Suppose you never cared much 'bout

Who could be blamed

Beware the fools and the fakes

Trapped outside, beneath the shame

I'm a lonely one, along the way out

And I have no name

So take these things away from me

They're useless bits I'll never need

Stop my breath so I'll be free

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

And you sail, and I go

Act like I don't know you

Don't act like I don't know you

Say, "How dare you?"

Call me like you owe me

Not only when you're lonely

'Cause it's not my cause to love you

But

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop

'Til I found you

I won't, I won't stop
