Lyrics

Stashing time back

Storing or saving time

into eternity

Preserving time for an indefinite period

I'd have to look that up

Expressing uncertainty, may need to research or find information

I'd have to run

Considering the need to escape or avoid something

until I collapsed

Running until physical exhaustion

Tallying the setbacks

Calculating and acknowledging past setbacks

from stone cold first place

Reflecting on challenges faced after being in a leading position

the horse in the lead collapsed trampled to pavement

Describing a horse in the lead that collapses and is trampled by followers

by followers

Highlighting the impact of followers on the leader's downfall

I'd have to look that up

Reiterating the need to research or find information

My wallet

Describing a thin wallet, possibly indicating financial difficulties

thin as a ticket stub

Comparing the thickness of a wallet to a ticket stub

my conscience

Stating the absence of guilt or moral awareness

evacuated

Expressing emptiness of conscience or lack of moral consideration

I've been running

Indicating a continuous state of running or escaping

out of favors

Running out of the ability to do favors for others

running out of kind words

Running out of positive or supportive words for people

for people

Losing the capacity to express kindness towards certain individuals

who I will never love

Expressing a lack of love for specific individuals

Stashing time back

Repeating the idea of saving or storing time, this time in Southern Saskatchewan

into Southern Saskatchewan

Specifying the location for storing time as Southern Saskatchewan

Working on the railroad emaciated

Describing working on the railroad in a weakened or exhausted state

I've been running

Reiterating the continuous state of running or escaping

out of favors

Running out of the ability to do favors for others

running out of kind words

Running out of positive or supportive words for people

for people

Losing the capacity to express kindness towards certain individuals

who I will never love

Expressing a lack of love for specific individuals
