Track Insight / Lyrics
You climb the pole at dawn, belt tight
Insulation cracked, you splice the white
Magnolia leaves brush copper wire
Sunlight fractures, green and fire
Pliers flash in calloused grip
Static hums from a loose tip
You pause, wipe sweat on denim sleeve
Watch the jungle breathe and heave
Copper garden, copper garden
Roots drink current, leaves don't harden
Every fracture finds a voice
Noise becomes a deliberate choice
Copper garden, copper garden
Switchboard clicks in the shadowed shed
Rotary dials, voices spread
Ivy chokes the ceramic posts
Morning glory climbs the ghosts
Solder smoke curls, sweet and sharp
You mend the break with steady heart
A sparrow lands on grounded line
Singing through your twisted twine
Copper garden, copper garden
Roots drink current, leaves don't harden
Every fracture finds a voice
Noise becomes a deliberate choice
Copper garden, copper garden
Rubber gloves, your fingers stained
Black from tar and summer rain
You test the pair, hear dial tone clear
A grandmother's laugh, a baby's tear
Copper garden, copper garden
Roots drink current, leaves don't harden
Every fracture finds a voice
Noise becomes a deliberate choice
Copper garden, copper garden
Storm blew down the oak last night
Severed trunk, exposed the white
You lashed the splice with friction tape
While thunder rolled across the lake
Copper garden, copper garden
Roots drink current, leaves don't harden
Every fracture finds a voice
Noise becomes a deliberate choice
Copper garden, copper garden
Apprentice hands the tape, asks why
You don't retire, let wires die
You grin, point up at flowering vine
"Signals need a place to climb"
Copper garden, copper garden
Roots drink current, leaves don't harden
Every fracture finds a voice
Noise becomes a deliberate choice
Copper garden, copper garden
Signals bloom where lines have woven
Dial tone hums in magnolia shade
You pack your tools, the splice is made
