[Intro]
Rolling through the night, a silent scream,
Riding on this train, breaking at the seams.
Lonely whistle howls, echoes of despair,
Long black train keeps moving, nobody seems to care.
[Verse 1]
Bound by chains of words, they cut so deep,
In the shadows of my mind, it's hard to sleep.
Paint on the smiles like a mask that I wear,
But inside I'm screaming, wishing someone would care.
[Pre-Chorus]
When the doors close tight, it’s like falling in the dark,
Where the engine roars, and hope just feels so stark.
Gripping tight to dreams of light, but never getting far,
On this endless track, lost beneath the stars.
[Chorus]
Long black train, running through the pain,
When will it stop? When will I break the chain?
Lonely journey, nobody hears my cries,
Searching for a way out beneath these darkened skies.
[Verse 2]
Screaming on the inside, they don’t see me bleed,
Fading memories of joy, buried by deceit.
Promises I held, now just shattered glass,
On this long black train, I’m a ghost of my past.
[Pre-Chorus]
Counting every mile, hoping for a sign,
But each twist and turn feels like a subtle crime.
Heart weighted down, but dreams yearn to rise,
Can I find the courage to break through these lies?
[Chorus]
Long black train, running through the pain,
When will it stop? When will I break the chain?
Lonely journey, nobody hears my cries,
Searching for a way out beneath these darkened skies.
[Bridge]
But deep in my soul, I can feel a spark,
Whispers of freedom in the depths of the dark.
Throw me from the track, let me find my way,
A new life is waiting, I’ll find it someday.
[Outro]
So here I stand, at the edge of the night,
No more trains of darkness, I’ll reach for the light.
Long black train, this ride is done,
Time to catch a new one, where my heart can run free.
