Track Insight / Lyrics
Dawn's pale light creeps 'cross the pier
Where my Weary Soulmate rests his broadsword here
Rusty chains and splintered wood
Echo tales of cargo voyages in this solemn brood
Oh City of Solace, I'm at peace
Where the Ferry docks meet your rumbling release
In the steel canyons, I've found my home
Where weary travelers commiserate and roam
Neon 'mongst graffiti and crumbling brick
Streetlamp's flicker's lull the concrete frick
Crowd's hum mingles with the distant roar
Of the Docks, where dreams and wrecks converge in this urban core
Oh City of Solace, I'm at peace
Where the Ferry docks meet your rumbling release
In the steel canyons, I've found my home
Where weary travelers commiserate and roam
Tumbledown warehouses, faded signs
Echoes of commerce rising, spent and decline
In this forsaken edge, I've found my haven
A refuge from the world that I no longer crave, I am
No flags, no crowds, no frantic pace
Here, in this desolation, I find some space
For thoughts untethered, without a thread
To weave the tangled messes in my weary head
Faded murals on the alley walls
Painter's vision lives through time's chills
In every crack, in every crevice, stories sleep
Of those who lived and loved, and wept, and kept
Oh City of Solace, I'm at peace
Where the Ferry docks meet your rumbling release
In the steel canyons, I've found my home
Where weary travelers commiserate and roam
My broken sword, now a beacon's stake
Gateside sentry, marking every pace
Night's descent, shadows all aglow
In City Solace's arms, I find my way to go.
