[half talking half singing] You hear that train coming, ya didn’t think so! [verse 1] Are my screams on the inside Not loud enough to hear You lookin’ right at me Noddin’ like you care But my words just ridin’ past you Like a midnight train on through Engine howlin’ in the distance Never stoppin’ up for you Mmmm hmmm You Blind in the dark Flashlight Searchin’ for a spark Flip The brights on So I can see What the hell I was thinkin’ Wasted Breathin’ On you [Verse 2] Gotta re-train My brain Through pain And scars Whiskey Hard Heavy pourin’ In this country heart Gasoline Dreams Tailpipe steamin’ Demonstratin’ Priorities Ain’t with me, girl You just spectatin’ [Chorus] Are my screams on the inside Not loud enough to hear You lookin’ right at me Noddin’ like you here But my words just passin’ through Like a midnight train I knew Steel wheels rollin’ past ya Only passin’ over you Mmmmhmm mmmm You [Verse 3] If you’re not here with me In the present Keep your past Future me Won’t be Standin’ last When you realize I’m gone I’ll be halfway down that road Or maybe It’s your plan All along to watch me roll Why lead me To believe You want me Quiet Frankly Selfishly You just like To spark a riot You want your cake on a plate And eat it too on cue But you ain’t built for a man Who bleeds this red dirt truth [Verse 4] Deer in the headlights You ain’t worth a buck Bet my luck On an oncoming truck Will you move Or should I crash right through Already numb inside Girl I’m done with chasin’ you Country boy heart on fire Diesel runnin’ through my veins If I hit that wall tonight I won’t feel a single thing [Chorus] Are my screams on the inside Not loud enough to hear You lookin’ right at me Noddin’ like you here But my words just passin’ through Like a midnight train I knew Steel wheels rollin’ past ya Only passin’ over you Mmmmhmm mmmm You [Verse 5] Need some scissors To cut these ties Fresh out of shits to give Just play pretend But this can’t mend This ain’t how I choose to live Sayin’ "I love you" Soundin’ like a friend You were never in my cab So I’m out here once again Rather be alone and heard Than with someone Givin’ nothin’ back in turn Dodgin’ your bullet Vest on my chest This hard heart Still poundin’ firm For someone New [Verse 6] The silent screams Go unseen You muted My voice Left me with a one-way ticket And a simple choice To up and leave Keep my pride I stayed one hundred proof You barely tried Your sweet words Were lies Cold fries Salty Discarded Ain’t reheatin’ that for you [Chorus] Were my screams on the inside Heard loud and clear Now lookin’ right at me You hear My words hit directly Not passin’ through I’m on this midnight train Rollin’ loose from you Hmmm mmmm Mmmm o Heard and felt that Didn’t you Diesel in my lungs And this country boy is through Mmmm Heard and felt that Didn’t you [whispered talking voice] Deaf Tone Records Gasoline Midnight Train
