At A Distance

In three parts divided One step behind my heart My soul residing in the past I'm upside-down and inside-out Where does this blood come from? Can trains bleed? How come I'm in here? These are tears "Stop knocking your head Give me that knife!" But I'm not bleeding mum, I'm hurt This isn't blood, and it isn't red. My heart is And it's not here, and it's not there But I know where it is The train pulls me To where my heart already left I don't want to go At a distance I live At a distance I long 'Cause I'm always One step behind my heart
