Runaway Train by Soul Asylum

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly (1)______________ a light
You were there like a (2)__________________ burning
I was a key (3)________ could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't (4)________ sleep
So (5)________ secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can (6)________ me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have (7)____________ led (8)____________ astray

Runaway train, (9)__________ (10)__________ back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be (11)______________ somewhere
Somehow I'm (12)______________ (13)________ nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it (14)______________ all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I (15)________ what no one else knows
Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain
With a (16)____________ for a runaway train
And everything seems cut and dried
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I (17)________ don't believe it

Runaway train, never (18)__________ 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 (19)______________ train
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A (20)____________ out of touch, a little insane
It's (21)________ easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train, never (22)__________ 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 (23)____________ seems the same
