"he enters the cab slowly from the rear" *violently kicks down door* Yeah... that's me doing stealth right there.

We made the song before Metro Exodus, but the developers liked the song so much they put it in the game! You can hear it on the train's radio.

So I am really late to this ride and have been listening to so many Cog songs. I find they all start by grabbing your attention then beating you into being a fan the entire time. It's fun!

If they ever make another Metro game, they should get these guys to do a song. Bravo!

ПЕЧАЛЬ НА РЕЛЬСАХ 💖💖💖💖 Воздух холодный и жгучий, Небо мрачное и белое! Тюремный поезд едет Быстро сквозь ночную мглу. Сорок мужчин в неволе Отправились своей судьбе навстречу! Их приговорили несправедливо, Но уже, похоже, слишком поздно! В Сибири Печаль на рельсах! Эти заключенные невинны, Но они отправятся в тюрьму! Будь проклят тот злой человек, Кто руководил нападением жестоким! Их поезд покинул станцию, но Уже никогда не вернется вновь! Лже политик Был близок к разоблачению Группой людей, которые узнали правду, Когда случилась беда. В ярости и панике Он выдумал ложь Он потянул за ниточки И изгнал он их, Отправив умирать этих бедняков. В Сибири Печаль на рельсах! Эти заключенные невинны, Но они отправятся в тюрьму! Будь проклят тот злой человек, Кто руководил нападением жестоким! Их поезд покинул станцию, но Уже никогда не вернется... Стой! Может быть, замерцала надежда, Когда один из заключенных ослабил свои путы. Освободившись от оков, он пробирается вперед К двигателю, чтобы столкнулся с машинистом. Медленные и мягкие шаги человека, Когда он идет со своей веревкой, замышляя, что дальше. Он проник в кабину сзади И связал он машиниста И заткнул ему рот! В Сибири Триумф на рельсах Эти невинные люди освободились От тех, кто напал на них! Теперь они наконец-то свободны И мчатся по трассе вдаль! Они несутся лишь вперед И они никогда не вернуться - Хэй! Никогда не вернутся назад!
