Steel Train Dakota Lyrics

Dakota Lyrics

Please remember the nights that we spent

In the city where you lay, we were young and nearly famous

But lightning strikes, buildings fall, and everything did change



Come on, Dakota

Tell me you don't wish I was still the same



I know a man dressed as a woman, heels, curly wig and nails

Fell for a boy who sold him powder and pills

And the younger boy with the older man, he made it all wrong



And in Dakota

These awful things burn away with the sun

Yes, in Dakota

These awful things are gone with morning sun



There was a boy who sang his song just different

So they stabbed him in the arms

Blood washed down him like a faucet

He cried for help and no one came, he died in the rain



And in Dakota

One day he will wake up unchanged

Yes, in Dakota

One day you will wake up unchained



Please remember the nights we spent alone

In the city where you lay, we are young and nearly famous

But thunder cracks and buildings burn, everything will change



Come on, Dakota

I know we can always be the same

And in Dakota

I know we can always be the same



Yes, in Dakota

It's okay to feel a little strange
