| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 00:15 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 00:22 |
| Kohaku | Without even telling me the destination | 00:25 |
| Madara | (Pretending you don't care) | 00:30 |
| Kohaku | The announcement echoes through the station | 00:32 |
| Madara | (Prompting everyone to board) | 00:36 |
| Kohaku | A first-class ticket, which invites you to a secret | 00:39 |
| Madara | Like at a masquerade ball, you can't tell who anyone truly is | 00:46 |
| Kohaku | The whistle that signals departure asked | 00:52 |
| Madara | "Is there a cat caught in this gaze?"1 | 01:00 |
| All | When people speak of lives already set on rails | 01:07 |
| Madara | Just imagining the final station | 01:14 |
| Kohaku | (That's just an illusion) | 01:18 |
| All | Lost in the clinging night mist | 01:21 |
| Kohaku | It left that stagnant peace behind and pulled away— | 01:28 |
| All | Sleeper Mystery Train | 01:32 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 01:39 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 01:45 |
| Madara | I don’t think about trying to dream | 01:49 |
| Kohaku | (Loaded with unspoken intentions) | 01:53 |
| Madara | Even though there’s no getting off halfway | 01:56 |
| Kohaku | (You went along with the invitation, didn’t you?) | 02:00 |
| Madara | It’s unfolding inside a sealed room | 02:02 |
| Kohaku | An overlap of tangled desires | 02:09 |
| All | You’ve already grabbed hold of it—something that will hurt even yourself | 02:17 |
| Kohaku | The handle of the knife called curiosity | 02:24 |
| Madara | (What do you really want to know?) | 02:28 |
| All | Cutting the strings of the passengers’ masks and exposing them | 02:30 |
| Madara | Did the real truth please you? | 02:38 |
| All | You are still in the secret | 02:41 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 02:48 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 02:55 |
| Kohaku | Those buried memories—if you uncover their secret | 02:58 |
| Madara | You’ll realize the treasure you believed you’d obtain | 03:05 |
| All | Ah, what everyone calls a mystery | 03:12 |
| All | It’s the self you come to know through others, isn’t it? | 03:19 |
| All | When people all boast of lives set on rails | 03:26 |
| All | While veiling the station they truly aim for | 03:33 |
| Kohaku | (It’s an illusion as well) | 03:37 |
| All | Have you stripped away the masks and met your own truth? | 03:40 |
| All | Heading from the dead of night toward the dawn—Sleeper Mystery Train | 03:47 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... | 03:57 |
| All | Clickety-clack-clack-clack... Mystery Train | 04:04 |

Translation notes
- ↑ While "the cat caught in this gaze" sounds like a classic mystery trope (like a detective spotting a clue), it is highly likely a nod to Schrödinger’s cat, a famous physics thought experiment where a cat in a sealed box is simultaneously alive and dead until someone looks inside (as an observation).
