Track Insight / Lyrics
Tarp over concrete, heat on the road
Carry the weight of a heavy load
Sifting through scrap for a brassy shine
Counting the cars in a steady line
Copper and quartz in a broken hand
Building a world in the desert sand
Wind in the wires and a steady beat
Hiding away from the Arizona heat
Oil on my fingers, grease on my sleeve
Small little pieces that make me believe
Springs and the levers, a golden spin
Waiting for someone to let me in
Copper and quartz in a broken hand
Building a world in the desert sand
Wind in the wires and a steady beat
Hiding away from the Arizona heat
Cactus is blooming, sky turning red
Counting the seconds inside of my head
Winding the mainspring, a click and a snap
Mapping the way on a tattered map
Copper and quartz in a broken hand
Building a world in the desert sand
Wind in the wires and a steady beat
Hiding away from the Arizona heat
One little gear out of place in the row
Watch how the seconds start moving so slow
Tweak the balance, a flick of the wrist
Finding the rhythm I almost had missed
Hitchhikers passing, they don't even see
Something is ticking and setting me free
Screws in the socket, a polished new face
Making a home in this empty space
Copper and quartz in a broken hand
Building a world in the desert sand
Wind in the wires and a steady beat
Hiding away from the Arizona heat
Just one more turn of the key
Finally ticking, finally free.
