Go home and hug your loved ones

Personal injury on the tracks
shuttle busses
to move around the pain
thank you for coming
come back again

someone isn't going home
go home and hug your loved ones
someone didn't get hugged today

westbound busses upstairs
to take you over the loss
keep moving, keep moving
at all cost

an accident at track level
not an accident at all
someone thought it, planned it
before they took the fall

go home and hug your loved ones
be grateful for what you have
shuttle busses on the street
for the streaming crowd
hurry, hurry to get a seat
before hearing death sounds

is that a siren in the distance
an ambulance to pick up the shell
its already too late to help
life was tardy to meet hell

for the darkness pushed someone
over the edge, beyond the yellow line
it's been happening a lot of late
and for a long, long time

go home and hug your loved ones
