Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dance in fading light,
A hollow echo in the night.
Steel and concrete, cold and gray,
She wanders lost along the way.
The last train sighed and rolled away,
Leaving shadows where the children play.
A calico ghost, a fleeting grace,
Lost in this underground place.
Fluorescent hum, a lonely drone,
She doesn't ask to be alone.
Just a warm spot, a gentle hand,
A quiet corner in this barren land.
Calico static, a flicker and gleam,
Lost in the currents of a forgotten dream.
A splash of color, a silent plea,
Will anyone notice her, or just pass her by, you see?
Beneath the tracks, a rumbling deep,
Secrets the city tries to keep.
She watches faces blur and fade,
A tiny queen, a life unmade.
Fluorescent hum, a lonely drone,
She doesn't ask to be alone.
Just a warm spot, a gentle hand,
A quiet corner in this barren land.
Calico static, a flicker and gleam,
Lost in the currents of a forgotten dream.
A splash of color, a silent plea,
Will anyone notice her, or just pass her by, you see?
A crumpled paper, a forgotten shoe,
She curls up tight, a shade of blue.
The air is thick with diesel smoke,
A broken promise, softly spoke.
I've seen a thousand storms roll in,
Felt the sea's cold kiss upon my skin.
This little stray, she understands,
The loneliness of shifting sands.
A kindred spirit, wild and free,
Lost in the vast immensity.
Calico static, a flicker and gleam,
Lost in the currents of a forgotten dream.
A splash of color, a silent plea,
Will anyone notice her, or just pass her by, you see?
A distant echo, a hurried pace,
Another soul lost in this place.
She lifts her head, a hopeful sign,
Searching for a love that could be mine.
Calico static, a flicker and gleam,
Lost in the currents of a forgotten dream.
A splash of color, a silent plea,
Someone will notice her, and set her spirit free!
The platform sleeps, a concrete sigh,
Calico static drifts on by.
A thinning answer, soft and low,
Where lost things wander, to and fro.
