She said our relationship was moving right on track 
A locomotive bearing down, a steam trail from the stack 
Scheduled precisely as the Orient Express 
Destination anybody's guess 

My conductor was obsessed by jumping off the rail 
And halted for the stagecoach of a bandit jumping bail 
She was boarding passengers while I was shoveling coal
Punching tickets while I paid the toll 

We came to an Emergency Stop 
We came to an Emergency Stop 
I reached up to yank the cord that dangled by my head 
She recoiled the slack and left me hanging there for dead
And came to an Emergency Stop 

Calling for the porter while I buckle from the strain
Speeding like a sportscar parked on board the AutoTrain 
As we passed the station house I heard myself remark 
The platform never used to be so dark 

We came to an Emergency Stop 
We came to an Emergency Stop 
She put on a mask and said she simply needed air 
I was waiting patiently without a thing to wear 
And came to an Emergency Stop 

Travel down my face and ride the tracks of all my tears 
One for each replacement engineer 

We came to an Emergency Stop 
We came to an Emergency Stop 
Banished to the boxcar when there's nowhere else to sit 
Loading up the baggage when there's no one to admit 
We came to an Emergency Stop 
We came to an Emergency Stop
