about

The main riff in this song inspired the bridge riff in The Southern Face which is played in the lower B Standard tuning thus sparking the idea of this record beginning and ending this railroad journey.

The sound of the train is from the Oakland waterfront.

lyrics

Body’s born
Soul grips on
Blood spills out
Graveyards song
Now you climb that northern face

Trust your steed
Iron will defeats
Bone snapping cold
Murdered crow
Now you climb that northern face

I am one
Land of none
Railroads throne
Steam black train
Now you climb that northern face
