Track Insight / Lyrics
Meter ticks while engines cough
Bricks glow amber, shaken off
Reel spins quiet in the booth
History wears a weathered tooth
Light cuts through the autumn chill
Frames the past with iron will
Footsteps pause on glowing seams
Caught inside the silver beams
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Carbon arcs kiss cobblestone
Faces watch but not alone
Taxi idles, meter waits
Driver checks the shifting dates
Rain slicks down the historic grade
Projection paints the promenade
Two souls share a fleeting glance
Chance encounter, second chance
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Fare jumps out, leaves damp wool coat
Sidewalk shines like memory's note
Projector hums a lullaby
Underneath the Boston sky
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Celluloid catches golden leaf
Brief escape from silent grief
Driver nods, pulls into flow
Lanterns blink, the night aglow
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Meter drops, the night grows deep
Reel winds down, the town asleep
Bricks hold warmth from passing art
Light maps rhythm in the heart
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Brick and light on Commonwealth
Stories rise from underground
Bricks glow warm on Commonwealth
History wakes without a sound
Cab pulls away, lanterns fade
Brick remembers light we made
