You took the last train out into the night
You see the outside world is rushin' by
The girls are outta town
And there's no turn around

Oh well the big bad city is just ahead
And there's a million lights of the living dead
They'll put the squeeze on you
So what you gonna do

Well you've bent your mind you've spent your life
And you've ended up with what
But you gon' wait to fall by now to turn around
Runnin' fast and your runnin' blind
But the past is always close behind
A million leaves are falling to the ground

As the night
Turns to day
And the day
Fade away

All the violent people with empty eyes
It's like a drive in brush in a paradise
And you just can't wait
You've got to fill that plate

You feel the morning rain at the break of day
It's gonna wash the sins of the night away
Well don't you understand
It's getting outta hand

Well you've bent your mind you've spent your life
And you've ended up with what
But you gon' wait to fall by now to turn around
Runnin' fast and your runnin' blind
But the past is always close behind
A million leaves are falling to the ground

As the night
Turns to day
And the day
Fade away

Runnin' fast and your runnin' blind
But the past is always close behind
A million leaves are falling to the ground
Well you've bent your mind you've spent your life
And you've ended up with what
But you gon' wait to fall by now to turn around

Runnin' fast and your runnin' blind
But the past is always close behind
A million leaves are falling to the ground

As the night
Turns to day
And the day
Fade away
