																Lyrics
								
									Working in the sunshine 
reveals the color of my skin
So I keep on praying, 
knowing darkness is my only friend
Someone told me about freedom 
and how to catch the train
But I can't find it on a map
I can't even spell it's name.
Finally, heaven draws her curtain 
So I slip into the night.
With feet hardened by the earth, 
I take the adrenaline flight.
Maybe what I am is wrong
I get tired singing songs 
about how great my life is
I'm gonna jump aboard that train 
and trade this life for something sane 
or I don't want no life at all
The sky is falling
The prize of freedom is in my sight
I thought I heard you calling
I reach you through the North Star light.
