Track Insight / Lyrics
Wind-whipped wings dance in the gloom
Fading dawn, a dying moon
Shadows weave, moonlight gleams
Attic window's secret dreams
Amidst the tangle of old clockwork
A boy stands, the world's gray hush
Contraptions click and tick their heartbeat
He longs to sprint the dusty street
[Pre-
Rays of light, like whispered truth
Slice through darkness, youth's pursuit
To escape this faded space
Where time is kept within its cage
Beyond the pane, the city stirs
A world of wonder, fiery spurs
Fevered dreams, electric thrum
Echoes of a distant drum
Dust motes swirl, caught in beams
As morning seeps, like a secret theme
The apprentice's heart starts to pound
Yearning for that city sound
[Pre-
Rays of light, like whispered truth
Slice through darkness, youth's pursuit
To escape this faded space
Where time is kept within its cage
Beyond the pane, the city stirs
A world of wonder, fiery spurs
Fevered dreams, electric thrum
Echoes of a distant drum
Pulse ragged, gears grind to a halt
The boy's vision blurs, heart's a rotten fault
But then he hears it – outside, so clear
The city calls, and his fear subsides
Crashing chords, a riotous roar
Melodic thrash, defiance once more
The apprentice stands tall and strong
Ready to break the clock's cold song
Beyond the pane, the city stirs
A world of wonder, fiery spurs
Fevered dreams, electric thrum
Echoes of a distant drum
Now the sun, a burning blade
Cuts through the night, the apprentice made
To seek his fate, he'll leave this lair
And let the city's wild pulse ensnare
