Track Insight / Lyrics
Fumbling gloved hands thread needle and twine
Untangling wires from wood, a patient's crime
Sun sets on the bayou, a fiery glow
Reflects off the tin roof, where shadows grow
[Pre-
The hum of the engines, a humming refrain
Thrusters once fired, now entwined in chains
I'm an outsider here, a man without a home
Longing for the open sky, yet bound to this drone
Bayside reckoning, the darkness descends
Anchored in secrets I'd rather not amend
The cypress trees loom, sentinels of old
I'm caught between my life, and this place I'm told
Steam rises from my helmet, in this damp delta air
Bayou waters lap at the porch, a lonely prayer
Each creak of the wooden floor, echoes through my mind
As I unknot my fate, like the knots I unwind
[Pre-
The hum of the engines, a constant refrain
Thrusters once fired, now picking at the pain
I'm an outsider here, yet bound by threads unseen
Longing for escape, yet drawn to this scene
Bayside reckoning, the darkness descends
Anchored in secrets I'd rather not amend
The cypress trees loom, sentinels of old
I'm caught between my life, and this place I'm told
Heavy thruster rumble, bass guitar drops
Distorted riffs, drums pound
Growling vocals, screaming solos
Catharsis in the breakdown
Explosive lead playing, virtuosic flourishes
Tapping arpeggios, whammy bar dives
Echoing, reverb-drenched notes fill the air
As the solo builds to a crescendo, without a care
Bayside reckoning, the darkness fades
Secrets revealed, my anchor now stays
The cypress trees stand, steadfast and true
As I find peace here, with a tale or two
Riffs fade out, volume drops to a last whisper of strings
The engine hum subsides, and silence brings
A moment of clarity, before the lonely night
Falls upon the bayou, all is still and right
