Travel Once Sliding Octet
Travel once on a haunted train,
a taste may make you lose your mind;
Railroad tracks leave the world behind
dismantled boxcars keep rolling;
Phantom mouths continue screaming,
they show you tickets that were signed;
Pure horror here is well defined,
you’ll visit with those who were slain;
Now you feel even more confined,
travel once on a haunted train;
Take the seat that you were assigned
surely they’ll be no arguing;
When a covered scab starts bleeding
don’t pick at it like you’re inclined;
You’ll visit with those who were slain,
to their curse pain is intertwined;
Get there early or they’re unkind,
a disturbing ride you will find;
Travel once on a haunted train
get lost in the way it’s moving;
Spontaneous can be soothing
you’ll visit with those who were slain;
The Dining car feels so refined,
relax the ghosts are on the grind;
Disobey? Idle hands they’ll bind,
probably should never have whined;
Restless spirits sit there waiting;
Travel once on a haunted train,
you’ll visit with those who were slain;
It’s real the nightmare is growing,
by the end you’ll be undermined;
It doesn’t matter if you’re kind;
Conducted by a mastermind
evil has now become streamlined;
Old clock ticks it becomes chilling
you’ll visit with those who were slain;
Travel once on a haunted train,
where they lived you’re now exploring;
Not really knowing how they died
only pieces have been outlined;
Racing down a track that’s unlined;
The length of this trip? Never mind;
You’ll visit with those who were slain,
strange feelings have you believing;
Your heart won’t ever stop racing,
travel once on a haunted train;
High anxiety undefined
for any relief victims pined;
Purity will become maligned
you’ll visit with those who were slain;
They were just trying to unwind,
surely safe where they were going;
Never thinking about running
to the obvious they were blind;
Travel once on a haunted train
see the dark nature of mankind;
You’ll visit with those who were slain
sitting back in a chair reclined
listen closely to tales enshrined;
As long as you keen on sharing
there will never be an ending;
Fallacy and the truth combined,
curious how we were designed;
Travel once on a haunted train.
