[Verse 1]
There rolls a train that's come to carry me back home
To face a sentence I've evaded for so long
I've been on a journey to lose myself in pain
Tumbled headfirst, steadfast, but I feel the same

[Refrain]
It's not all for nothing, it's only for the ride

[Verse 2]
Like hollow words that come so fast and do no work
I've been shooting at the moon but he don't hurt
Put me in a box and toss me over the bridge
Maybe the fish can make something more of this

[Refrain]
It's not all for nothing, it's only for the ride

[Chorus]
There's no use pretending
My freedom I'm defending
Oh, from miserable
Inexcitable
Love

[Refrain]
It's not all for nothing, it's only for the ride
