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
