Lyrics[edit]

   Crazy, but that's how it goes
   Millions of people living as foes
   Maybe it's not too late
   To learn how to love
   And forget how to hate
   
   Mental wounds not healing
   Life's a bitter shame
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
   
   Let's Go!
   
   I've listened to preachers
   I've listened to fools
   I've watched all the dropouts
   Who make their own rules
   One person conditioned to rule and control
   The media sells it and you live the role
   
   Mental wounds still screaming
   Driving me insane
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
   
   I know that things are going wrong for me
   You gotta listen to my words
   Yeah
   
   Heirs of a cold war
   That's what we've become
   Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb
   Crazy, I just cannot bear
   I'm living with something' that just isn't fair
   
   Mental wounds not healing
   Who and what's to blame
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
   I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
