Dead Man's Switch

The above lyrics are not the lyrics to the song. The actual lyrics are:

Shovel the coals and begin Feed the iron horses with mortal remains And we stay on this bearing Destined for your derailment Feed on the steam and the speed With momentum daring to break

Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein

One with the speed, all that you need Fire to breathe kerosene Burnt off the rails, destined to fail This unrelenting hell on wheels

March with the beat of the rails No man can take the helm of This chaos parade, this havoc train To board this evil engine with no Dead man's switch! Ear to the ground, feel the shake The iron horse is coming your way

Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein Feed the engine vein

One with the speed, all that you need Fire to breathe kerosene Burnt off the rails, destined to fail This unrelenting hell on wheels

One with the speed, all that you need Fire to breathe kerosene Burnt off the rails, destined to fail This unrelenting hell on wheels

This apparatus is built for one sound Birthed to live fast and die loud Crush

Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush) Feed the engine vein (Crush)

One with the speed, all that you need Fire to breathe kerosene Burnt off the rails, destined to fail This unrelenting hell on wheels

One with the speed, all that you need Fire to breathe kerosene Burnt off the rails, destined to fail This unrelenting hell on wheels

I think that the hellish train in the song is the godless world. It's coming right at you with complete disregard for the lives it has ruined thus far: "feed the iron horses with mortal remains." It is hellbent on destroying you: " we stay on this bearing Destined for your derailment" No individual can overcome it: "No man can take the helm of This chaos parade, this havoc train To board this evil engine with no Dead man's switch!" Yet its evil will not prevail in the end: "destined to fail."
