Track Insight / Lyrics
Grill ticks cool at three a.m.
Regulars don't ask me when
Eggs slide slow on seasoned steel
Coffee black, the night is real
Eye the brass through cracked green glass
Night coffee steams, the shift won't pass
Greenhouse leans, but holds its frame
I watch the dark call every name
Brass tube catches sodium glow
Greenhouse panes bend soft and low
Cracks map veins on botanist's dream
Tomatoes sleep in steam's thin seam
Eye the brass through cracked green glass
Night coffee steams, the shift won't pass
Greenhouse leans, but holds its frame
I watch the dark call every name
Joe the mechanic laughs at gears
Says my scope brings stars too near
Wipes his hands on denim thigh
Orders pie with knowing eye
Eye the brass through cracked green glass
Night coffee steams, the shift won't pass
Greenhouse leans, but holds its frame
I watch the dark call every name
Condensation blurs the view
But I polish lens brand new
Hope wears aprons, grease and grit
Dawn gets plated, chipped but fit
Tomato vines don't judge my stare
They drink the dark and morning air
Cracks let in what whole panes miss
Fractured light still feeds the bliss
Morning crew takes over stool
Telescope rests, morning fuel
Cracked glass holds the rising light
Brass sleeps warm through day and night
Eye the brass through cracked green glass
Night coffee steams, the shift won't pass
Greenhouse leans, but holds its frame
I watch the dark call every name
Eye the brass through cracked green glass
Night coffee steams, the shift won't pass
Greenhouse leans, but holds its frame
I watch the dark call every name
Cracked panes catch the first gold ray
Brass stays mounted, comes what may
