lyrics

The Rail Authority

Disengage
All the power returns
When sunrise city falls
Everyone will burn
We find pale bleached bones
And we send back frozen mysteries
When sunset city falls
Everyone will freeze

Don’t fuck with the rail authority
And hope they pay you no mind
Don’t fuck with the rail authority
Or you’ll spend a long night outside

Redefine
All the shameful incivility
When sunrise city lies
Losing credibility
They know who to watch
To spot the disbelieving
When sunset city lies
You’d better start agreeing

Don’t fuck with the rail authority
And hope they pay you no mind
Don’t fuck with the rail authority
Or you’ll spend a long night outside

Separate
All the minor improprieties
When sunrise city wakes
It wakes to high anxiety
Can’t mend crippled souls
Tortured with impunity
When sunset city sleeps
It’ll sleep for an eternity
