Track Insight / Lyrics
Morning light hits brass anvil head
Moss creeps slow on broken shed
His cloth moves slow on worn boot toe
Dark wax shines where grime won't go
Steel bones sleep under green blanket
Time holds breath in rusted casket
He works the grain with patient hand
Land reclaims what builders planned
Cobbler guards the sleeping yard
Buffer singing soft and hard
Leather drinks the oil he brings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Afternoon sun warms the steel beam
Moss drinks deep in daylight dream
His knife lifts sole from upper clean
Stitch by stitch the seam unseen
Steel bones sleep under green blanket
Time holds breath in rusted casket
He works the grain with patient hand
Land reclaims what builders planned
Cobbler guards the sleeping yard
Buffer singing soft and hard
Leather drinks the oil he brings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Evening paints the brick walls gold
Moss tells stories centuries old
His awl marks holes in rhythmic beat
Soot settles on his worn seat
Cobbler guards the sleeping yard
Buffer singing soft and hard
Leather drinks the oil he brings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Night falls thick on factory floor
Moss grows thick behind the door
His lamp throws light on thread and awl
Stitches hold through winter squall
Cobbler guards the sleeping yard
Buffer singing soft and hard
Leather drinks the oil he brings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Dawn returns on cracked concrete
Moss and leather, bittersweet
He sets the boot on wooden shelf
Guardian of the ruin himself
Cobbler guards the sleeping yard
Buffer singing soft and hard
Leather drinks the oil he brings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Moss and leather, quiet kings
Buffer slows to silent rest
Moss inherits what he blessed
