Far Below

[Intro] Last train screaming through the black,Steel beast roaring down the track,Windows flash and vanish slow—There are hungry things below. [Verse 1] Five miles buried beneath the street,Where iron sweats and tunnels meet,Pale hands scratching through the stone,Teeth that crack through skin and bone. Every shriek the engines drown,No one hears them farther down,Silent guns and shuttered lightKeep the city safe at night. [Pre-Chorus] Grab your gun!Climb on in!Time for it to begin!Get your helmet!Hold on tight!We’re givin’ them hell tonight! [Chorus] Beneath cars and city lights,Live the things that crawl at night,We are the few that fight and know,We keep the bastards far below. [Verse 2] Maxim guns begin to cough,Cut them down and drag them off,Burn the bodies, clean the rail,Make damn sure we leave no trail. Craig has watched them twenty years,Fed his hatred, fed his fears,Now his shoulders stoop and roll,Darkness tunnels through his soul. [Chorus] Beneath cars and city lights,Live the things that crawl at night,We are the few that fight and know,We keep the bastards far below. [Bridge] Nails grow heavy, teeth grow long,Every human light feels wrong,And the voices in the wallDo not sound strange at all. [Final Pre-Chorus] Grab your gun!Climb on in!Time for it to begin!Get your helmet!Hold on tight!We’re givin’ them hell tonight! [Final Chorus] Beneath cars and city lights,Live the things that crawl at night,We are the few that fight and know,We keep the bastards far below. [Outro] Craig stands staring down the track,Something answers from the black,One step forward— One step slow— Will he turn... Or will he go?
