Rail Blues

A young girl is laughing Waiting for the train to come Sounds more Like a witch laugh For a baby girl Sounds more Like a witch laugh For a baby girl She cranes her strange face And bounces Bounces Bounces Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha Under the steel creaking sky She stares at me Her white eyes Invisible scar Waving her body Waving her body Like a curse A curse A curse Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha She's only twelve years old And all the human wasting at her feet She's dancing nowadays Without a single tear Alone upon these goddamn rails Alone upon these goddamn rails Alone upon these goddamn rails Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha Sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails Ha We're sheltered by the rails Sheltered by the rails
