Track Insight / Lyrics
Passing notes on a cracked screen
Streets aglow with flickering neon sheen
In the night, a lonely guy
Carries worn compass, swears "I won't quit trying"
On worn leather, compass' face
Fingers tracing lines of faded space
The roads unwinding before him slow
As the weight of miles begins to show
Keep the maps, and maps untattered
This worn road map's where I'm tethered
Tales of journeys, left and lost
Every line, my path is cost
In the dead of night, he'll find his way
To the archives, where secrets stay
Through cobwebbed corridors, he'll roam
Seeking answers in dusty, unknown home
Keep the maps, and maps untattered
This worn road map's where I'm tethered
Tales of journeys, left and lost
Every line, my path is cost
By the stacks' warm glow, he'll sit and rest
Pages turning, whispers of the past
In the silence, a story takes flight
Of lives that wandered, through day and night
On worn leather, compass' face
Fingers tracing lines of faded space
The roads unwinding before him slow
As the weight of miles begins to show
Keep the maps, and maps untattered
This worn road map's where I'm tethered
Tales of journeys, left and lost
Every line, my path is cost
Keep the maps, and maps untattered
This worn road map's where I'm tethered
Tales of journeys, left and lost
Every line, my path is cost
Under neon lights, his footsteps fade
Lost in thought, as maps are made
The compass' face, a silent friend
Together they'll travel, till the very end
