Ride Into Darkness

Songtext

Midnight departure
Tickets, please
The last train is arriving
And I'm here to take you down

Black iron breathing in the rain
Lost souls board the midnight train
Each ticket bears a final day
I stamp their names and turn away

Steel on steel, the wheels awake
Beneath the rails, the shadows shake
The city slips beyond our sight
We cross the border of the night

Ride into darkness!
Hear the iron engine cry
Ride into darkness!
Watch the last light leave the sky

Let the world above grow small
Hear the buried kingdom call
Ride into darkness!
Come with me beyond the light

The windows show their final days
A heartbeat cuts the iron haze
One ticket bears no final date
I turn before we reach the gate

One living heart among the dead
An unsigned fate, a path unread
The tunnel forks beneath the stone
And now the choice is yours alone

Ride into darkness!
Hear the iron engine cry
Ride into darkness!
Watch the last light leave the sky

Let the world above grow small
Hear the buried kingdom call
Ride into darkness!
Come with me beyond the light

Wait
Your ticket has no date

You're still alive

One rail rises to the sun
One goes where dark rivers run
The lever waits beneath your hand
Choose the light… or choose my land

Ride into darkness!
Hear the iron engine cry
Ride into darkness!
Watch the last light leave the sky

Let the world above grow small
Hear the buried kingdom call
Ride into darkness!
You have chosen endless night

You made your choice
