The Other Side of the Tracks

A periodic flicker of light, Between which are cold metal, The urge to look away, i fight, Catching every glimpse i get, For the possibility of might. I could jump over it, But I have fear of the height, Just the thought of it, Sends me into fight or flight, I wait for it to pass And i was right. You were there, on the other side of the tracks.
