[Verse 1]
Pieces of gold straddling paper
All into nothing and turning to vapor
The air is thin, the locks are set
You lift your chin, she feigns regret

[Chorus]
Two high-speed trains on parallel tracks
Running out of steam, not turning back
Two high-speed cars on parallel streets
Never gonna crash, never gonna meet

[Verse 2]
She can't contend with what I'm selling
I can't pretend it's not for telling

[Chorus]
Two high-speed trains on parallel tracks
Running out of steam, not turning back
Two high-speed cars on parallel streets
Never gonna crash, never gonna meet

[Instrumental Outro]
