Track Insight / Lyrics
I stand tall on a pumpside perch
Watching tires kiss the red dirt church
Neon glow paints my brass flank bright
Counting steps through the humid night
Brass eye sees the crossroads dance
Gas station hums a one-drop trance
Count the footsteps, count the souls
Rolling past on worn-out soles
Camera clicks from a runaway hand
Snapping frames of this forgotten land
I reflect the flash in my curved glass
Holding moments as they pass
Brass eye sees the crossroads dance
Gas station hums a one-drop trance
Count the footsteps, count the souls
Rolling past on worn-out soles
Bus sighs loud on the asphalt vein
Exhaust coughs a sweet gasoline rain
I track the tires, the heels, the toes
Every traveler a story knows
Night deepens, neon turns to blue
My brass skin catches morning dew
Still I count, a steady beat
Roots rhythm moves my metal feet
Tourist maps fold, lovers argue loud
Dust settles on the shifting cloud
I witness kisses, fights, goodbyes
Reflected in my glassy eyes
Brass eye sees the crossroads dance
Gas station hums a one-drop trance
Count the footsteps, count the souls
Rolling past on worn-out soles
Dawn breaks slow on the crossroads sign
Last footsteps counted, yours and mine
