Track Insight / Lyrics
Cold steel turns within my hand,
A silent promise, understand.
Mist rolls in, a silver screen,
Across the water, a waking dream.
Forged in darkness, years ago,
A heavy weight, a steady glow.
I fit no lock, no turning door,
Just watch the river evermore.
Brass key watch, on the misty tide,
Secrets held where the currents hide.
Steel and silence, a watchful eye,
Beneath the bridge where the shadows lie.
Stone by stone, the arches rise,
Reflecting grey in weary skies.
Boats drift past, a fleeting grace,
Each shadowed hull, a lonely space.
Brass key watch, on the misty tide,
Secrets held where the currents hide.
Steel and silence, a watchful eye,
Beneath the bridge where the shadows lie.
I've seen the seasons come and go,
Felt winter's breath, and summer's flow.
The river's rhythm, deep and slow,
A constant pulse, a steady show.
Brass key watch, on the misty tide,
Secrets held where the currents hide.
Steel and silence, a watchful eye,
Beneath the bridge where the shadows lie.
They built this span for hopeful feet,
To cross the divide, a journey sweet.
But I remain, a guardian true,
Watching over all they do.
The lamp still burns, a golden tear,
Dispelling darkness, calming fear.
I hold the weight, the solemn trust,
Against the wind and gathering dust.
Brass key watch, on the misty tide,
Secrets held where the currents hide.
Steel and silence, a watchful eye,
Beneath the bridge where the shadows lie.
The mist descends, a ghostly veil,
My silent vigil will not fail.
A brass key turns, a final gleam,
Lost in the river's endless dream.
