Track Insight / Lyrics
Nights of cold, the Schiphol specter
Aurora lights like ghosts, fleeting and colder
Uninvited echoes of my regret
As raindrops sizzle, neon puddles gather
Amsterdam's fog hugs me tight
Piercing through, cold light
In this city, I lose sight
Of what remains, what's to ignite?
Thrum of a '68 Vespa passing by
Wind whispers secrets, a fleeting sigh
Motes of dust swirl, lights from the sky
Clouds of breath, and I blink, unsure why
Amsterdam's fog hugs me tight
Piercing through, cold light
In this city, I lose sight
Of what remains, what's to ignite?
Moon's pale face, shrouded in haze
The streetlamp's pulse, gaslit days
Behind the windows, life plays on
While I sit, waiting for dawn
Amsterdam's fog hugs me tight
Piercing through, cold light
In this city, I lose sight
Of what remains, what's to ignite?
Perhaps in the fog, I'll find release
A chance to break through the haze of ease
Leave the ghosts and regrets on the shore
And find a new path, a world in store
Coats of condensation, canal's breath
The bridge creaks, a lone pedestrian's death
In this city of bridges, I'm adrift
But still, I hold on to the thought
Amsterdam's fog hugs me tight
Piercing through, cold light
In this city, I lose sight
Of what remains, what's to ignite?
Amsterdam's fog, it's my demise
Yet in its depths, I may find rise
A light to guide me through the night
To set things right, to make it right
Mist still clings as the dawn breaks
Light seeps in, through the blanket
Of gray and white, of what it takes
To start anew, to close the cracks
