Out, on this cold, dark and rainy night
The mist, dimming everything in sight
No matter where I looked for light, no luck
Twas when the noise, of thunder, struck
Caught me off guard, my heart in my throat
Feelings of doom, began to denote
The reason I was here, caught in the storm
Standing alone, on this creaky platform
Waiting impatiently for the train, all along
It’s where I knew, I would always belong
With no lights to guide me, I continue to roam
Yes, the devil has taken the only place I call home
Riding the tracks, to the next place, I’d dwell
I’m boarding this train, next stop, living hell
