Midnight on the Redline

[Verse 1]

Missed my train by a minute

Watched it roll out

Watched it go

Coffee cooling in my left hand

Right one shaking from the load

[Chorus]

Midnight on the redline

I’m stuck on the platform

Stuck in my head

Midnight on the redline

Every wrong word

Every thing I left unsaid

Midnight on the redline

I keep on hoping you ain’t gone to bed

Midnight on the redline

Running out of chances

Running out of threads

[Verse 2]

You said

“Baby

I ain’t waiting

For a heart that shows up late”

Now I’m talking to the timetable

Like it’s got the power to change fate (oh yeah)

[Chorus]

Midnight on the redline

I’m stuck on the platform

Stuck in my head

Midnight on the redline

Every wrong word

Every thing I left unsaid

Midnight on the redline

I keep on hoping you ain’t gone to bed

Midnight on the redline

Running out of chances

Running out of threads

[Bridge]

She sings

“Why you always almost here?

Why you always halfway home?”

I growl

“I’m fighting through the smoke and steel

Scared as hell to be alone” (yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

[overdriven guitar solo answers organ swells

Drums push into a heavier shuffle]

[Chorus]

Midnight on the redline

I’m stuck on the platform

Stuck in my head

Midnight on the redline

Midnight on the redline

I’m stuck on the platform

Stuck in my head

Midnight on the redline

Every wrong word

Every thing I left unsaid

Midnight on the redline

If this last train takes me to your door

Midnight on the redline

I won’t miss another minute anymore (oh yeah)
