[Intro – whispered over pulsing bass] Platform nine. Midnight. You came alone. I didn't. [Verse 1] Red light burning above the track Three black coats and a man in back You step through steam with your collar high One hand empty, one hand by your side No time to ask what changed tonight The station clocks are all running right Then someone moves where no one should And every exit closes. [Pre-Chorus] Don't look left Don't miss the sign Count to four Then cross the line One step late One second wrong And we're gone [Chorus] Run on the red signal Move when the whole room freezes No names, no second chances No time for reasons Cut through the crowd Keep low, stay close Trust me until you don't Run on the red signal Before they know we're gone [Verse 2] Down through tunnels beneath the hall Footsteps multiply off every wall You throw me a key with a number scratched [Female voice] "Car seven. Door locked. Don't let them catch—" [Male voice] The sentence dies in a burst of glass Blue lights split through the underpass Someone shouts my cover name You look at me. [Female voice] "You said they didn't know." [Pre-Chorus] Don't stop now Don't turn around Hear that pulse Under the ground One train leaves One stays behind Choose in time [Chorus] Run on the red signal Move when the whole room freezes No names, no second chances No time for reasons Cut through the crowd Keep low, stay close Trust me until you don't Run on the red signal Before they know we're gone [Instrumental Break – frantic saxophone, Rhodes stabs, syncopated bass, sharp brass hits] [Bridge – spoken, rapid] Car seven. Wrong key. Two men behind us. One ahead. Thirty seconds. [Pause] "You still have the file?" [Beat] [Female voice] "No." [Massive instrumental hit] [Final Chorus] Run on the red signal Move when the whole world freezes Burn every route behind us Leave them the pieces No names No trace No safe way home Run on the red signal— [Stop] —and jump. [Outro – train roar, pulse continues alone] Four. Three. Two. Gone.
