lyrics
What am I? I’m the child that should not be
Born of rust, secrets forged inside of me
Strange anatomy, my mortality
Father time, not the man you used to know
Deep inside, ticks a heart that I don’t own
Now the old one slows
Will you let it go?
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know
Move and sway
Advance through the shadow
I will wait, fear life in my dreams
Far away, you danced with the devil
Stole his heart, then made it in me
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know
Mr Night, they feed on your hunger
Shadow spy, a child in your eyes
In my brain are sparks and confusions
Move away Mr Thief in the night
High and low, the watchmen are calling
The pastor slows, turns his head to sky
All at once, the brass-bound seek refuge
Chains they tow, bring the old girl to life
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know
Born of rust, secrets forged inside of me
Strange anatomy, my mortality
Father time, not the man you used to know
Deep inside, ticks a heart that I don’t own
Now the old one slows
Will you let it go?
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know
Move and sway
Advance through the shadow
I will wait, fear life in my dreams
Far away, you danced with the devil
Stole his heart, then made it in me
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know
Mr Night, they feed on your hunger
Shadow spy, a child in your eyes
In my brain are sparks and confusions
Move away Mr Thief in the night
High and low, the watchmen are calling
The pastor slows, turns his head to sky
All at once, the brass-bound seek refuge
Chains they tow, bring the old girl to life
Copper mind, rusted eyelids sealed in crome
There’s an orphan child, somewhere between love and hope
Will you let him go, only time will know

What can I say about Big Big Train that I haven’t said before? This album took a little while to grow on me but by the time I saw it live I was in love with its humongous, over-egged pomposity! They do it all with such passion, excitement and amazing musicianship. Essential.
