    Lyrics:
    Stop! the train is riding
    Down to the station
    Where you lived
    When we were school kids
    Hey! the rails are gone now
    And I am falling down
    Fools in a spiral
    Round this town of steel
    My body tells me no
    But I won't quit
    Cause I want more
    Stop! the train is riding
    Down to the station
    Where I lived
    When I was a cool kid
    Hey! is it my fault that
    The fallen embers burn
    Down in a spiral
    Round your crown of thieves
    My body tells me no
    But I won't quit
    Cause I want more
    It rides out of town
    Oh, it's my road
    And it's my war
    His eyes are open
    My body tells me no
    But I won't quit
    Cause I want more
    It rides out of town

    Live videos don't get any better than this. The lack of cutting, the crowd energy, the dance party on stage. Simply the best. Oh, and this song absolutely rocks. That helps.

    Sameer jacks the camera guy's shirt @1:57 and then he chucks it into the crowd (this is essentially to simulate what it would be like if he took your shirt off "My body tells me know, but i won't quick cause i want more") and the camera guy does some of his best camera work without a shirt!!!
