Lyrics

Trains, running through the town

Trains passing through the town

Missed my turn around

I missed my opportunity to turn things around

Trains, got to break away

Trains symbolize a need to break free or escape

Got to leave today

Feeling the urge or necessity to leave today


There's nothin' gonna stop me

Determination to overcome obstacles

From runnin' the tracks

Nothing will hinder my progress along my chosen path

You never saw me comin'

My arrival or actions were unexpected

And I ain't comin' back

I have no intention of returning

I've always been your whippin' boy

I have consistently been treated poorly or taken advantage of

I think it's time for a change

It's time for a shift or change in my situation


Strange, it's always been the same

My circumstances have always been strangely similar

It's never you to blame

You're not typically at fault for these situations

Chains, drag me to the ground

Feeling trapped or restricted

But no one turns around

No one notices or helps despite my struggles


There's nothin' gonna stop me

Determination to keep moving forward despite obstacles

From runnin' the tracks

Your lack of awareness of my actions or intentions

You never saw me comin'

My departure was not expected by you

And I ain't comin' back

I'm not planning on returning to the previous situation

I've always been your whippin' boy

I've always been used or mistreated

I think it's time for a change

It's time for a significant change in my role or treatment


Names, numbers on your wall

Lists of names or numbers associated with past actions

But I'm not gonna fall

I won't succumb to these lists or judgments

Games, I'm tired of playin' clown

Tired of being the source of amusement or entertainment

Another side show is leavin' town

The situation of being a spectacle is ending


There's nothin' gonna stop me

Resolute in continuing despite challenges

From runnin' the tracks

Unawareness of my actions or intentions by others

You never saw me comin'

I left without being noticed or anticipated

And I ain't comin' back

No intention of returning to previous treatment

I've always been your whippin' boy

I've been consistently mistreated or used


There's nothin' gonna stop me

Determination to persist despite obstacles

From runnin' the tracks

Lack of awareness of my actions or intentions by others

You never saw me comin'

Departure without being noticed or expected

And I ain't comin' back

No intention of returning to previous treatment

I've always been your whippin' boy

I've consistently been mistreated or used

I think it's time for a change.

Expressing the need for a significant change in treatment or circumstances
