The little engine who couldn't (think straight)



And here I am
Day after day
I used to be a speed demon
But they threw me away

Now I'm stuck here all alone
In the middle of a field
The Birds and the Trees, Swayin'
Made a mess out of me
And I'm sayin' -

There's music in the way the weather hits my rusty coat
But I don't give a damn without a place to go
I could have shot across the mountainside
An open country fate
But instead they say that I'm the Little Engine Who Couldn't Think Straight

And I can hear them saying:

"We heard about this Little Engine of the North
We heard he drove a hundred men into the ocean
Can you believe this Little Engine?
What a foolish Little Engine!"

And even though I'm all alone
And those are voices in my head
I can still hear their hearts stop beating
I can still see their tears start falling

The water's deep and freezing
And I'm leaning on a rock
Floating past the dead I see a ticking clock
Saying time is up my friend
Take a bow and leave the stage
Cause forever says you're now the Little Engine Who Couldn't Think Straight

And they'll never stop saying:

"We heard about this Little Engine of the North
We heard he drove a hundred men into the ocean
Can you believe this Little Engine?
What a foolish Little Engine!
KILL HIM!!!!"

Maybe one day they'll forgive
And try me out again
Until then I'll just sit here waiting
A scrap of metal trash they've created

-INTERLUDE-

The Shredding Tears Have Come to Play
On the Stage
A Little Song of Light and Sound
OH!
Can you see 'em spinning 'round?
OH!
A Little Song of Light and Sound!

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics THE LITTLE ENGINE WHO COULDN'T (THINK STRAIGHT) of BRYAN SCARY is also present in the album The shredding tears (2006)
