Steel Train - Dakota lyrics

Please remember the nights that we spent In the city where you lay We were young and nearly famous But lightning strikes and 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 that we spent In the city where you lay We were 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 ok to feel a little strange
