Track Insight / Lyrics
Rain slicked streets, a city sighs, a tired, hazy gleam
He counts the fares, each metal click, a fleeting, hollow dream
The midnight train has vanished now, just echoes in the air
A lonely whistle, fading fast, a burden hard to bear
But under neon tracks, a story starts to unfold
The bridgeman waits, his lantern glow, a story to be told
Of lost souls passing through, their burdens light and deep
A symphony of silence, secrets that they keep
He sees the girl in silver shoes, a tear that shines so bright
She holds a crumpled photo close, a memory in the night
A weary businessman, his briefcase filled with pain
He walks the platform, head bowed low, a heavy heart's domain
But under neon tracks, a story starts to unfold
The bridgeman waits, his lantern glow, a story to be told
Of lost souls passing through, their burdens light and deep
A symphony of silence, secrets that they keep
A poet with a tattered book, a melody takes flight
His verses paint the midnight scene, with longing and with light
A couple holding hands so tight, a whispered, stolen kiss
A silent promise in the dark, a moment pure of bliss
The tracks they hum a gentle tune, a lullaby of steel
Connecting hearts, both near and far, a story to reveal
He watches them all pass by, each with a tale to tell
A silent witness to their dreams, beneath the moonlit spell
The dawn begins to break through, a soft and gentle hue
The platform fills with morning light, a world anew
He gathers his belongings, a weary sigh he breathes
Another night has come and gone, beneath the neon leaves
But under neon tracks, a story starts to unfold
The bridgeman waits, his lantern glow, a story to be told
Of lost souls passing through, their burdens light and deep
A symphony of silence, secrets that they keep
A single train arrives at last, its whistle breaks the calm
He bids farewell to the night, and watches as they all walk on.
