I Like Trains in tongues

Blink and you'll miss it
Blink and you'll be blinded by the flood
Thousand fickle voices call for blood
They'll take their pound of flesh and they'll be gone
Don't let your masks slip
Don't you dare
Lecture us in tongues
It's in the friends that I keep
It's in the air as it leaves my lungs
It's in the words to the songs I will sing
As you cut out my tongue
It's in the shoes I couldn't fit
I say it's clear I'm no one's fool
But I'm not fooling anyone
Don't let your masks slip
Don't you dare
Lecture us in tongues
Over and over and over again
Into the rabbit hole into the lion's den
Over and over and over again
We find comfort in the whys and when
