Steel Train - Dakota lyrics
[Steel Train - Dakota lyrics]
Please remember the nights that we spent
In the city where you lay
We were young and nearly famous
But lightning strikes, buildings fall
And everything did change
Come on, Dakota
Tell me you don't wish I was still the same
I know a man dressed as a woman
Heels, curly wig and nails
Fell for a boy who sold him powder and pills
And the younger boy with the older man
He made it all wrong
And in Dakota
These awful things burn away with the sun
Yes, in Dakota
These awful things are gone with morning sun
There was a boy who sang his song
Just different
So they stabbed him in the arms
Blood washed down him like a faucet
He cried for help and no one came
He died in the rain and in Dakota, one day
He will wake up unchanged
Yes, in Dakota, one day
You will wake up unchained
Please remember the nights we spent alone
In the city where you lay
We are young and nearly famous
But thunder cracks and buildings burn
Everything will change
Come on, Dakota
I know we can always be the same
And in Dakota
I know we can always be the same
Yes, in Dakota
It's okay to feel a little strange
In the city where you lay
We were young and nearly famous
But lightning strikes, buildings fall
And everything did change
Come on, Dakota
Tell me you don't wish I was still the same
I know a man dressed as a woman
Heels, curly wig and nails
Fell for a boy who sold him powder and pills
And the younger boy with the older man
He made it all wrong
And in Dakota
These awful things burn away with the sun
Yes, in Dakota
These awful things are gone with morning sun
There was a boy who sang his song
Just different
So they stabbed him in the arms
Blood washed down him like a faucet
He cried for help and no one came
He died in the rain and in Dakota, one day
He will wake up unchanged
Yes, in Dakota, one day
You will wake up unchained
Please remember the nights we spent alone
In the city where you lay
We are young and nearly famous
But thunder cracks and buildings burn
Everything will change
Come on, Dakota
I know we can always be the same
And in Dakota
I know we can always be the same
Yes, in Dakota
It's okay to feel a little strange
