Rain slicks the asphalt by the pizzeria sign
Neon bear grins crooked in the dead deadline
Phone guy's tape hiss plays on loop inside my head
Six hours left until the morning paints it red
Bonnie moves on camera two-a then he's gone
Chica clatters kitchen pots at break of dawn
Foxy sprints down hallway west when power dips
I grip the wheel and bite my lip
Midnight route through Freddy's gaze
Animatronic hellraisers count the days
Doors slam shut on battery drain
Five nights driving through the pain
Midnight route don't break don't bend
Shift ends when the sun ascends
Golden suit sits molded in the back room dark
Springlocks breathe a fatal mechanical spark
Purple car parks quiet by the dumpster side
Kids don't scream they just vanish inside
Midnight route through Freddy's gaze
Animatronic hellraisers count the days
Doors slam shut on battery drain
Five nights driving through the pain
Midnight route don't break don't bend
Shift ends when the sun ascends
Power hits zero percent at four AM
Freddy's face glows bright in the ceiling fan
Music box winds down to a lullaby
One more hour till the morning sky
Cab smells like grease and ozone fear
Twenty years I've driven past here
Never picked a fare from that lot
But the sign still burns whether cold or hot
Six AM the doors unlock slow
Kids rush in for the birthday show
I pull away with wheels on gravel
Another night survived the travel
Midnight route through Freddy's gaze
Animatronic hellraisers count the days
Doors slam shut on battery drain
Five nights driving through the pain
Midnight route don't break don't bend
Shift ends when the sun ascends
Meter stops engine rests dawn breaks
