Track Insight / Lyrics
Red pine needles on the floor
Iron locks upon the door
Copper wires stripped from the wall
Wooden fences start to fall
Hold the light before the gray
Burn the midnight hours away
We are racing toward the sun
Until the morning race is run
Rusted engine, frozen wheel
Coldest touch of cobalt steel
Sooty breath in winter air
Silver frost inside your hair
Hold the light before the gray
Burn the midnight hours away
We are racing toward the sun
Until the morning race is run
Ticking clock inside the bone
Concrete garden, seed unblown
Yellow tape across the street
Heavy rhythm, drumming beat
Breathe it in, the heavy haze
Lost inside a metal maze
Sinking low, the embers glow
Now we have no place to go
Hold the light before the gray
Burn the midnight hours away
We are racing toward the sun
Until the morning race is run
Empty
K bottle, broken glass
Wait for every hour to pass
Diesel smoke and cedar wood
Stay right here where we both stood
Hold the light before the gray
Burn the midnight hours away
We are racing toward the sun
Until the morning race is run
Cobalt steel, cobalt steel.
Racing toward the sun.
(Ooh, ooh)
