Lonely Train

Love stays strange as the seasons change.
I ride that lonely train when the sun goes down.
I smoke a cigarette and think about the past.
These days are my future, which one will be my last.
Yesterday's gone, I heard it in a song.
I drink from the bottle when the pain comes along.

I hear you, brother. That train just keeps rolling, and it doesn't have any good stops along its route. Excellent work.
