Underground
Journey Beneath: A Tale of Subterranean Movement
Lyrics
Wheels go 'round, from end to end,
Describes the continuous movement of wheels from one end to the other.
A passage run, go down, descend.
Refers to a passage or journey that involves going down or descending.
And underground the air is stale
Highlights the underground environment with stagnant air.
With blurring light and endless rail.
Describes the dim and unchanging light along an endless railway.
On the wheels in motion, underground.
Emphasizes the continuous motion of wheels in the underground setting.
Silent noise, relentless sound.
Contrasts the silence and relentless sound in the underground space.
Through shuttered aisle, the wheels go 'round.
Portrays the persistent movement of wheels through closed aisles.
The day is night, yet never still,
States that the day feels like night, and there is constant activity.
From port to port, with miles to kill.
Indicates a journey from one port to another with a considerable distance to cover.
On wheels in motion, underground.
Reiterates the idea of continuous motion on wheels underground.
Just the locomotion, underground.
Focuses on the pure movement or locomotion in the underground setting.
Windows dark, no view obscured.
Describes windows as dark with no clear view.
With moving eyes, no sight assured.
States that eyes are in motion, but there is no guaranteed sight.
Yet moving on, from place to place,
Expresses the continual progress from one place to another.
Through corridors, without a face.
Mentions moving through corridors without encountering any faces.
On the wheels in motion, underground.
Reiterates the idea of wheels in motion within the underground context.
Just the locomotion, underground.
Emphasizes the focus on the pure locomotion aspect in the underground setting.
