"Black Train" lyrics

"Black Train"

Black train runnin' on a silver rail
It's guidin' me to Hell
Shockwave caused by a silver nail
It's cracked and ruined the bell
That once rang out so sweetly, hey, hey

Black cloud has fallen on my eyes
Troubled on the sword
Black cloud has covered up the sky
Hidden the face of God
That once looked down so friendly

Though my body turns to ashes and my brain turns into glass
There'll be no sad goodbyes when my time has come to move on
Move on, move on

Though my body turns to ashes and my brain turns into glass
There'll be no sad goodbyes when my time has come to move on
Move on, move on

Black nine, you can cut it with a silver knife
Last me through the night
Dark moon is shinin' on my grave
Man don't wanna be saved
From death that lay a-waiting, oh, hey
