Verse 1: It was late July, a sky of burning red A suitcase full of dreams, a path we hadn’t tread You said, “Don’t look back, let the past stay behind” We boarded that midnight train, chasing a new life Pre-Chorus: The stars lit the way, but the night felt so cold We were fearless and young, but the weight made us old Every mile felt like a piece of home fading And yet, I swore I’d keep your heart from breaking Chorus: We’re on the midnight train, no turning back Every whisper of the wheels keeps us on track Through the dark, through the pain, through the pouring rain We’re running from the past, chasing a name Oh, the midnight train, it’s carrying our fate But are we too far gone, or just too late? Verse 2: We shared stolen laughs, but your eyes told the truth The kind of battle scars that don’t fade in your youth You traced constellations on the windowpane And said, “Do you think we’ll ever be the same?” Pre-Chorus: The rhythm of the tracks matched the beat of my chest I wanted to say more, but words felt suppressed The silence spoke louder than anything we could I reached for your hand, hoping you understood Chorus: We’re on the midnight train, no turning back Every whisper of the wheels keeps us on track Through the dark, through the pain, through the pouring rain We’re running from the past, chasing a name Oh, the midnight train, it’s carrying our fate But are we too far gone, or just too late? Bridge (Breakdown): The lights of the city blurred in the haze I saw the tears you tried to erase I said, “This journey’s ours, it’s not in vain” But you turned away, like I was to blame You whispered, “Sometimes we’re better apart The midnight train can't fix broken hearts” I held on tighter, refused to let go But your silence screamed everything I needed to know Final Chorus (Bigger, More Emotional): I’m on the midnight train, alone this time Every whisper of the wheels echoes through my mind Through the dark, through the pain, through the endless rain I’m running from the past, but it still remains Oh, the midnight train, it’s carrying my fate Maybe I was too far gone, or just too late Outro (Soft, Haunting): It was late July, a sky of burning red I’ll never forget the words you never said The midnight train keeps rolling on its track But no matter how far, it won’t bring you back
