Runaway Train by Soul Asylum

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were (1)__________ (2)________ a blowtorch burning
I was a key (3)________ could use a (4)____________ turning
So tired (5)________ I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more (6)______________ I couldn't keep
It (7)__________ no one can (8)________ me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have really led 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 mystery (9)__________ so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know (10)________ no one else knows
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a (11)____________ for a (12)______________ train
And everything (13)__________ cut and dried
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't (14)______________ it

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems (15)________ I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Bought a (16)____________ for a runaway train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A (17)____________ out of touch, a (18)____________ insane
It's just (19)____________ than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never (20)__________ back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm (21)______________ here nor there
Runaway train, (22)__________ coming back
Runaway train, tearing up the track
Runaway train, burning in my veins
I run away but it always (23)__________ the same
