Transcontinental Songtext / Lyric

Engine severs lower legs

I feel my bruised heart beating

Spinal cord remains intact

Still sending and receiving



Lying back on shoulder blades

The cargo rushing past

Missing limbs beneath the cars

Twitching on the tracks






Click clack now handicapped

North am transcontinental



I remember as I bleed

Certain tales of bravery

A man whose legs were crushed beneath

A fallen evergreen tree



He decided he would chop them off above the knee

To sacrifice his shins and feet to make his torso free

The luxury of having been spared the hard part

You'd think would be enough for me to pull this off



But I'm left to bleed to death, now all the man I've ever been

North am transcontinental
