Story behind the song
I wrote this song as a person who used to feel very inhibited by people's opinions, by a lack of confidence in my writing abilitles, and by a general fear of what other people thought. This song was me after all these years breaking out of my shell.
Lyrics
Off The Rail
Fire burns in my mind, got you in my sight
Nothing in my way, nothing you can say
Burning off the tracks, there's no turning back
Too late you see the truth, I will run you through
I am a train running off the rail
Charge forward no fear of what's ahead
Engines red hotter than the flames of hell
No place for fear no thought that I may fail
Screaming up the line, nowhere you can hide
Steamengine rolling fast, how long can you last
Breaking record speed, faster's all I need
Madness permanent, IMPACT IMINENT!!
I am a train running off the rail
Charge forward no fear of what's ahead
Engines red hotter than the flames of hell
No place for fear no thought that I may fail
(repeat chorus)
