Track Insight / Lyrics
Old bones creak, a rusty chain
This backyard's my domain
Feral scent hangs in the air
Of busted fences, dreams despair
Back alley hound, ain't never known
The touch of kindness, a loving home
Just the rumble of a passing truck
And the echoes of a lonely pluck
Heard the whispers, saw the stares
The city's judging, filled with dares
But I ain't lookin' for their grace
Just a place to find my space
Sun sets low, paints the sky
A canvas torn, where birds can't fly
Moonlight spills on dusty ground
Silent echoes all around
Back alley hound, ain't never known
The touch of kindness, a loving home
Just the rumble of a passing truck
And the echoes of a lonely pluck
Heard a story 'bout a boy
Left a dog toy, a girl's sweet voice
A flicker of hope, a distant star
But dawn breaks quick, and I'm right here, where I are
City sleeps, a lullaby
Of sirens wailin', dreams go by
Another night, another day
Just a back alley hound, come what may
Back alley hound, ain't never known
The touch of kindness, a loving home
Just the rumble of a passing truck
And the echoes of a lonely pluck
