Lyrics
Take time, animal. Your train of thought is derailed. You're willing to get back on track, but can you look away from the crash? Better get on board son, conductors order. Better look alive son, you're tied to the tracks. "And I'm invincible!" I know you'll try to go even though the gate is down. This is very frowned upon. Many have passed this way, and I'd say you'd better wait until it's safe.
