    Call you up in the middle of the night
    Like a firefly without a light
    You were there like a blowtorch burning
    I was a key that could use a little turning
    So tired that I couldn't even sleep
    So many secrets I couldn't keep
    Promised myself I wouldn't weep
    One more promise I couldn't keep
    It seems no one can help me now
    I'm in too deep
    There's no way out
    This time I have really lead myself astray
    Runaway train never going back
    Wrong way on a one-way track
    Seems like I should be getting somewhere
    Somehow I'm neither here nor there
    Can you help me remember how to smile?
    Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
    How on earth did I get so jaded?
    Life's mysteries seem so faded
    I can go where no one else can go
    I know what no one else knows
    Here I am, just drowning in the rain
    With a ticket for a runaway train
    And everything seems cut and dry
    Day and night
    Earth and sky
    Somehow I just don't believe it
    Runaway train never going back
    Wrong way on a one-way track
    Seems like I should be getting somewhere
    Somehow I'm neither here nor there
    Bought a ticket for a runaway train
    Like a madman laughing at the rain
    A little out of touch, a little insane
    It's just easier than dealing with the pain
    Runaway train never going back
    Wrong way on a one-way track
    Seems like I should be getting somewhere
    Somehow I'm neither here nor there
    Runaway train never coming back
    Runaway train tearing up the track
    Runaway train burning in my veins
    I run away but it always seems the same

    Around the time this was filmed these guys did an "unplugged" show at the club were I worked. I will admit I was not yet a fan, but after meeting them and experiencing their performance I was forever converted. Very professional, kind and cooperative gentlemen to work with. They did a lot to help me connect with their generation. The way this song expresses such intimate personal emotion is extremely powerful. It's more than a song or work of art. It's humanity! I think there is a dark spot inside all of us that can relate.

    The lines " like a firefly without a light" and " how on earth did I get so jaded, life's mystery seems so faded" sum up depression for me personally. I only really understand the meaning of this song now, and although in a way I wish I didn't i, I love it even more. Even stripped down to basics it is still perfect (and just so perfectly sad...)

    Me? Every time I hear this song, I recall the first time I heard it on the fm in an old friend’s pickup. I was not long in from the road broke and run down. I wondered for a moment if it was someone who picked me hitchin cross country somewhere and heard my story driving across Utah or some such. The song hit me like a slap in the face, a punch in the gut, and an ice pick in the heart all at once. I didn’t know whether to cry or start breaking things so I just sat dumbfounded. A perfect song for the lost soul a few miles off the road. I guess it’s likely a part of what followed and why I am so safe and happy now. I am grateful for these young men with their keen insight.
