Verse

Sittin' here waiting for the train leading out

All I am within is all I have without

 The ocean's long and the current's strong

 but my ardor is devout

 And finding what's within is what this trip's about

x2

Woke up quick, moonlit figure on display

A man asked my purpose, a woman asked my name

 Said I've lost all sight of wrong and right,

 and I leave to find my way

And I'm called a new name every day

Chorus

 Because where I left is all I know,

 I'm accountable for how I grow

 And for whether I'm an honest man someday

 The train across will cause me pain,

 but progress friends you cannot feign

All I want won't come along my way,

 won't come along my way

x2

x3

A kid my age, took to his feet and said

Who I am now, ain't the dream that's in my head

 For all I've tried, I've lied and lied and my soul is nearly dead

 But the ride ain't quite over yet

 Because where I left is all I know,

 I'm accountable for how I grow

 And for whether I'm an honest man someday

 The train across will cause me pain,

 but progress friends you cannot feign

All I want won't come along my way,

x2

Bridge

 In spite of me the wind will hit the trees

 And all the rest will chase all that I need

 And if I never try and continue all the lies

All I want will simply stay a dream

 Because where I left is all I know,

 I'm accountable for how I grow

 And for whether I'm an honest man someday

 The train across will cause me pain,

 but progress friends you cannot feign

All I want won't come along my way,
