Track Insight / Lyrics
Fog rolls in on ghost tide
You watch the bay swallow moonlight whole
Your tires kiss steel gone cold
Regulars know your silent post
Coffee steam rises like a ghost
Chrome sentinel on pier forty-two
Mist wraps your frame in pearl and blue
No kickstand needed, roots hold true
San Francisco keeps watch with you
Grease stains map the roads you knew
Before the salt claimed bolt and screw
Hash browns sizzle, grill sings low
You're the only regular who won't go
Chrome sentinel on pier forty-two
Mist wraps your frame in pearl and blue
No kickstand needed, roots hold true
San Francisco keeps watch with you
Fishermen nod at dawn's first gray
You've outlasted nets and fray
No lock, no chain, no thief would dare
Steal a memory welded there
Chrome sentinel on pier forty-two
Mist wraps your frame in pearl and blue
No kickstand needed, roots hold true
San Francisco keeps watch with you
Seagulls argue over crusts
Night shift ends in diesel gusts
But you stay planted, two wheels deep
While the bay forgets to sleep
Short order cook knows your name
Pours a cup, calls it the same
Usual spot, same old view
Kickstand down, morning breaks through
Chrome sentinel on pier forty-two
Mist wraps your frame in pearl and blue
No kickstand needed, roots hold true
San Francisco keeps watch with you
Chrome sentinel, dawn shifts blue
Pier breathes out, still watching you
