You escape like a runaway train
C Em A7
Off the tracks and down again
C Em A7

C Em A7
all your burdens

On my shoulders
C Em D
In the mourning I'll rise
C Em D

In the mourning,

all my worry.
C Em A7
Now there's nothing but time that's wasted
C Em A7
And words that have no backbone
C Em A7
Now it seems like the whole world's waiting
C Em A7
Can you hear the

echoes fading?

all my 'sorry's
