turning around a train

i'm still not well, but maybe it's the feeling bad that brings out my artistic side. if i've ever written a song that needs string accompaniment, this is it:

turning around a train

it feels like i'm never gonna change
as much as i hate to admit it
i get stuck in my ways
moments like this when i don't see a way out
i put my hope into the small things
and just ignore my doubts

it feels like it could take a lifetime
but once i get there i'll be fine

it's like i'm turning around a train
but it only goes one way
and i'm pushing against the tracks
i can't let go
i can't turn back

not long ago i put my hand to the plow
i strapped in for committment
and there was no way out
but lately i've felt so ashamed
i've lost all i once held sacred
and i'm the one to blame

it feels like a wasted lifetime
but once again i will be fine
