Nightmares on Tracks
[Verse 1]
I remember, back in the day
I burned the fire inside a big ol' train
Day and night I worked to earn my wage
I made sure we rolled it down the rails
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Then, one cold winter night, as the rain wouldn't stop
Ahead from the darkness, a light stared us down
[Verse 2]
As we reached towards that eerie light
The engineer and I were locked on sight
Another train was howling on our tracks
Face to face, we were about to crash
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Then, the train took a turn, in front of our eyes
Frozen, we watched as they screamed in the night
[Chorus]
Faces, screaming!
Death was reeling
Father, save us!
This can not be real
[Verse 2]
Fear had led me to a different work
Three whole months, I set the tracks instead
Tales and stories of the train I heard
A hundred years ago, it crashed and burned
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Then, like lightning, it struck, straight through my thoughts
The train we had seen, was it real, or... I remember
[Chorus]
Faces, screaming!
Death was reeling
Father, save us!
This can not be real
[Bridge]
Real, or a dream
What I've seen
Forever lives with me
[Guitar Solo]
Now, that I sleep
I will wake
From the nightmares and the [?]
[Guitar Solo 2]
[Chorus]
Faces, screaming!
Death was reeling
Father, save us!
This can not be real
Faces, screaming!
Death was reeling
Father, save us!
This can not be real
