Well, I've already been to heaven
So I might as well step down
Up seems like a real good offer
But I'm gonna have to turn it down

Losing heart
Wondering if it's worth saving
Well, at least what remains
After it hits the pavement

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

Trains change, they jump the tracks
They almost always switch back

Once again it's just me
The smoking empty shotgun shell
So close to a dream you can't touch
My very own version of hell

Playing tables and gambling
Bad hands of cards
Running out of crosswalks
Betting on the oddest odds

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

Trains change, they jump the tracks
They almost always switch back
I've changed, I've jumped the tracks
I almost always switch back

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

I've already been to heaven
So they asked me to step down
Up was a real good offer
But I screwed up big and turned it down

Lost heart
Knowing it's not worth saving
No usable remains
After it hits the pavement

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

Trains change, they jump the tracks
They almost always switch back
I've changed, I've jumped the tracks
I almost always switch back

Trains change, they jump the tracks
They almost always switch back
You've changed, you've jumped the tracks
You've almost always switched back

And now I know for sure
You knew I was sincere
I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere
I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere

I just had to make sure
You knew I was sincere
