Matthew Wheeler - A Train Ride Lyrics

The train is full
And we're pushed side to side, but it's okay
Your head is full
And I'm barely upright; it's been a long day
The sirens whine and cry
And the lights go out, but you're brave
The train is full
Eerily quiet as the stars fade
But you're just a boy with your headphones on
And I'm pressured to live like a preacher's pawn
But I'm just a boy, can I lean my head on your back?
And I'm gone
They'll look at us
Like they know what we are, but we are unscathed
And they'll marvel at us
But we're gods reincarnated, unfazed
The train waits for us
Doors always open in divine aid
But mind on your back
We're one in a billion, and we're not afraid
'Cause I'm just the body I was born into
And the body is cold and looks a lot like you
And you're just a boy with a missing tooth
So, I ask to your back as our secrets pour
Is this what God made me human for?
I'm still the child my mother bore
And God, I'd be born a million times over for this
God, I'd be born a million times over
I'm just a boy, my body bare
In the end I will fight for my right to prayer
But for now I'm a boy with my head leaning on your back
The train stops, we're there
We're there
