The paper studies the differential geometry of 2-step nilpotent Lie groups endowed with left-invariant Lorentz metrics. The author focuses on the explicit integration of the geodesic equation. New results establishing the existence of closed timelike geodesics in Lorentz 2-step nilmanifolds are obtained.
