This song is a warning to all Americans. Sure, it will upset some, especially Republicans. However, continuing to bury our heads in the sand is never a good option.

LYRICS:
Verse 1
There’s a force on the tracks,
And it’s tearing through the land,
A runaway train that won’t slow.
It’s a roar in the night,
And it’s burning the plan,
Of the dreams that this country once sold.
Verse 2
In the halls of the past,
Where the laws used to stand,
Now they're crumbled, forgotten, betrayed.
There's a man at the helm,
With a world in his hands,
Turning truth into lies every day.
Pre-Chorus
Ooh, it’s a runaway train,
And we’re bound to derail,
If we don’t find the strength to resist.
Ooh, it’s a runaway train,
Leaving wreckage and pain,
And a nation that’s lost in the mist.
Verse 3
The Constitution's torn,
As the people divide,
And the walls that protected are thin.
There are cries in the street,
As the powerless weep,
But their voices are drowned by the din.
Chorus
And it’s a runaway train,
Rolling faster each day,
Crushing those who have nowhere to hide.
It’s a runaway train,
And the tracks are ablaze,
Tearing hope and the truth from inside.
Bridge (Instrumental)
(Haunting guitar solo)
Verse 4
Do you hear the sound?
It’s the people who shout,
As they fight to take back what was lost.
In the ashes we’ll find,
What was left of the time,
Before greed turned our dreams into cost.
Outro
And the wheels keep turning,
Through the ashes and flame,
But the voices grow louder,
Calling freedom’s name.
The tracks are still broken,
But they’re not beyond repair,
If we fight for tomorrow,
We can rebuild it there.
(Pause, softer)
And though the scars remain,
And the pain still lingers on,
We’ll remember the cost,
Of what went so wrong.
(Haunting, quiet finish)
The runaway train fades,
Into shadows and rain.
But the echoes remind us,
Never again.
