Leaving Daylight

Leaving Daylight

The train is leaving daylight
traversing into the shadows
wheels are spewing fire
they light up the night
and I it's only rider
as this train leaves daylight

streamline is it's body
forged of blackened steel
from the kiln
of the devils realm
this train that leaves daylight

Many a soul has rode this train
with it's banshee sounding squeal
I but one,for deeds I've done
will ride again and again

Into the bowels of Hell I ride
with no one at my side
for thoughts that spoke louder
than any word
but my thoughts were read
and Satan heard
now I pay for every word
on this train leaving daylight

heat is oppressive, yet there is no sun
my sentence here has just begun
thoughts without action , nor with deed
the dark ones hunger my soul will feed
no more this train to ride
for it has left daylight far behind
