Beneath the scattered light 
Across bare hills of night 
I dreamt a train just missed me 
Another came in sight 

I ran across the track 
Then had to turn right back 
A new one came straight at me 
The next behind my back 

Nowhere else to turn to 
There's walls on either side 
Why must the embankment be so high 
Beside myself with weakness 
And faint from running wild 
I could hear the sound of 
Burning coal 

They never seem to stop 
But always get to smoke 
Right out between two tunnels 
I ran until I woke
