Slow Blues RockDark CountryHypnoticHeavyResigned
A slow, chugging rhythm played on muted electric guitar strings creates the sensation of a train approaching from a distance. A harmonica mimics the train whistle, but it sounds distorted and eerie. The bass is heavy and rhythmic. The vocals are resigned and tired, accepting the ride. It’s a metaphorical blues track about struggling with mental health, personified as a midnight ride you can't avoid.
[Verse 1] I hear the rumble on the iron track Coming to take me and carry me back To the dark place where the shadows live Where I have nothing left to give I packed my bags a long time ago Waiting for the whistle to scream and blow Conductor knows my face and name Every trip is exactly the same [Chorus] The Midnight Train is rolling in Collecting the sorrow and collecting the sin No ticket needed, the ride is free Coming for you and coming for me Black smoke rising, wheels of steel Crushing the hope and the way I feel Get on board, don't be late Resign yourself to the heavy fate Midnight Train [Verse 2] I tried to run, I tried to hide But there's nowhere left on the countryside The rails are laid inside my mind Leaving the station of peace behind Windows are black, no view outside Just the reflection of a wounded pride Rhythm is shaking the bones apart Stopping the beating of the heart [Chorus] The Midnight Train is rolling in Collecting the sorrow and collecting the sin No ticket needed, the ride is free Coming for you and coming for me Black smoke rising, wheels of steel Crushing the hope and the way I feel Get on board, don't be late Resign yourself to the heavy fate Midnight Train [Bridge] Chugga chugga. Clickety clack. Fade to black. No coming back. [Harmonica Train Whistle Solo - Distorted] [Outro] All aboard. Last stop. Nowhere.
