Runaway Train by Soul Asylum

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You (1)________ (2)__________ like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a (3)____________ turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many (4)______________ I couldn't keep
Promised (5)____________ I wouldn't weep
One more (6)______________ I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too (7)________ there's no way out
This time I have (8)____________ led myself astray

Runaway train, never (9)__________ back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems (10)________ I (11)____________ be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither (12)________ nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all (13)________ 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 (14)________ what no one else knows
Here I am (15)________ a-drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything seems cut and dried
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I (16)________ don't believe it

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