[Verse 1]

No, I'm not color blind

I know the world is black and white

I try to keep an open-mind

But, I just can't sleep on this tonight

[Chorus]

Stop this train

I wanna get off and go home again

I can't take the speed it's moving in

I know I can

But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?

[Verse 2]

Don't know how else to say it

Don't want to see my parents go

One generation's length away

From fighting life out on my own

[Chorus]

Stop this train

I wanna get off and go home again

I can't take the speed it's moving in

I know I can

But, honestly, won't someone stop this train?

[Verse 3]

So scared of gettin' older

I'm only good at being young

So I play the numbers game

To find a way to say that life has just begun

[Outro]

Had a talk with my old man

Said "help me understand"

He said "turn 68, you'll renegotiate"

"Don't stop this train

Don't, for a minute, change the place you're in"
