PORCUPINE TREE

- Trains Lyrics

Train set and match spied under the blind
Shiny and contoured the railway winds
And I've heard the sound from my cousin's bed
The hiss of the train at the railway head

Always the summers are slipping away

A 60 ton angel falls to the earth
A pile of old metal, a radiant blur
Scars in the country, the summer and her
Always the summers are slipping away
Find me a way for making it stay

When I hear the engine pass
I'm kissing you wide
The hissing subsides
I'm in luck

When the evening reaches here
You're tying me up
I'm dying of love
It's OK

What is the meaning behind Trains lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Porcupine Tree's 'Trains' depicts the passing of trains as a metaphor to express the impermanent character of time and memories, with a main focus on the somewhat delightful sadness of summer's departure. To express these ideas the lyrics portray a feeling of yearning to capture the moments that are already gone, at the same time dealing with the aspects of love, nostalgia, and change's inevitability. Mostly love, nostalgia, reflection, nature, and hope are the main points of the Trains lyrics. However, the song does, by the same token, underline the roles of nostalgia and the passing of time in love and connection. No foul language or any adult themes are presented in the text, nor anything that can be categorized as inappropriate for kids. The use of imagery and themes is kid-friendly.
