Train
It’s a rainy, dark night and the clouds flood the sky
We are driving home with the radio on volume two
None of us spoke a word that entire ride home
But we were all just a little tired
We stopped at a passing train
I watched its every cart glide by me on the tracks
I saw the wheels turn and the water splash up in its tracks
I noticed every bolt, bar, and graffiti marking on it
I noticed the sound of it
It was heavy
I could hear the heaviness of the rolling trap
And then I thought to myself
Just a few steps and a couple seconds
That’s all it takes and I would be gone
I knew how easy it could kill me and I wanted that
I didn’t know why but I just did
Trains can take people anywhere you want
Sometimes they can take you to heaven too
