Lola Parks (live) - Freight Train (Los Angeles)

Introducing Lola Parks Live from the 2024 LA Sync Summit at El Cid, Silverlake, Los Angeles.
Lola sings "Freight Train", a folky blues & Americana song about truth, reconciliation, forgiveness, and how to best move forward, both in the context of an intimate relationship sense and in a wider, sociopolitical and sociocultural sense.
Is reconciliation possible? Is forgiveness? Is it too late to make amends? It’s a call for reflection and acceptance, a clarity and readiness to move forward. #femalesingersongwriter #Canadianfemalesingersongwriter #LolaParks

Lyrics:
Your love is like a freight train
Your love is like a freight train
You come in hot and you come in fast
Then I hear your brakes screechin’ on the tracks
Your love is like a freight train
Your love is like a campfire
Your love is like a campfire
Keep me warm through the night
Then you left and took the light
Your love is like a campfire
Is it too late for a conversation?
Is it too late to make amends?
Is it too late to forgive and forget?
Is it too late, is it too late?
Your love is like a landmine
Your love is like a landmine
Laying low, lay in wait
Constant threat to detonate
Your love is like a landmine
Is it too late for a conversation?
Is it too late to make amends?
Is it too late to forgive and forget?
Is it too late, is it too late?
Loving yourself helps, you said
As if I’s the only self-hating one
I said I didn’t need marriage, I wanted a lover and a friend
You said you weren’t lookin’ for love and on that you wouldn’t bend
If I show you how to love again…
Your love is like a shotgun
Your love is like a shotgun
Shoot from the hip, straight to the heart
Forever blown apart
Your love is like a shotgun
Is it too late for a conversation?
Is it too late to make amends?
Is it too late to forgive and forget?
Is it too late, is it too late?
Unless our love is like a phoenix
And we rise above the ash
And we show ‘em a love that lasts
Is it too late, is it too late, is it too late?
