Intro 1


The 
last 
train 
is 
Verse 1
nearly 
due, 


The underground 
is 
clos
ing 
soon, 

And 
in 
the dark 
deser
ted 
station, 

Restless 
in 
anti
cipation, 

A 
man 
waits 
in 
the shad
ows. 

Verse 2
His 
restless 
eyes 
leap 
and scratch, 

At 
all 
that 
they 
can touch 
or catch, 

And 
hidden 
deep 
within 
his 
pocket, 

Safe 
within 
its 
silent 
socket, 

He 
holds 
a colored 
cray
on. 

Verse 3

Now 
from 
the tun
nel's 
stony 
womb, 

The 
carriage 
rides 
to 
meet 
the groom, 

And 
opens 
wide 
and 
welcome 
doors, 

But 
he hesitates, 
then with
draws 

Deeper 
in 
the shad
ows. 

Verse 4

And the 
train 
is 
gone 
suddenly 

On 
wheels 
clicking 
silently 

Like a 
gently 
tapping 
lit
any, 

And he 
holds 
his 
crayon 
rosary 

Tighter 
in his 
hand. 

Verse 5
Now 
from 
his 
pocket 
quick 
he flashes, 

The 
crayon 
on 
the wall 
he slashes, 

Deep 
upon 
the 
advertising, 

A 
single 
worded 
poem 
comprised 

Of 
four 
let
ters. 

And his 
Verse 6
heart 
is 
laughing, 

screaming, 
pounding 

The 
poem 
across 
the track

s rebounding 

Shadowed 
by 
the 
exit 
light 

His 
legs 
take 
their 
as
cending 
flight 

To 
seek 
the 
breast 
of darkness 

and 
be suckled 
by 
the 
night.

    Best Tuning App Ever

    "

    I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    Well-Designed App

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    Got me back into playing

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
