No Way Out

I can't get out
can't quench my thirst
can't breath nor move
I can feel my hunger
They did
They tried
but they were burnt 'til dry

I can't
I can't
can't
I can feel death
I can
and I did
I stepped in the way of that bullet and I died

Oh, but be not alarmed
for now
finally just as they
I tried
and I did
    I got out

I can't get out
I can't get out
They did
They tried
but that's why they call it the scarlet tide

I can't get out
can't quench my thirst
They did
They tried
but that's how they died

I can't get out
can't breath nor move
They did
They tried
but the floor of this train is where they lie
