Track Insight / Lyrics
I hold the heat of lead and sand
A frozen prayer within his hand
He leans against the peeling white
And waits for trains in morning light
Cut in cobalt, cut in blue
I see the world and I see you
Cold as iron, sharp as steel
This is the only thing that's real
The depot paint is flaking fast
A grey reminder of the past
He traces lines upon my face
A lonely ghost in this old place
Cut in cobalt, cut in blue
I see the world and I see you
Cold as iron, sharp as steel
This is the only thing that's real
The diesel fumes are thick and sweet
The gravel crunch beneath his feet
He holds me to the winter sky
And watches all the engines fly
Solder runs like silver rain
Cutting through the heavy pain
Break the mold and set the glow
Watch the colored river flow
The clock is stuck at half past four
He lingers by the open door
My jagged edges catch the glare
Of diesel smoke and freezing air
Cut in cobalt, cut in blue
I see the world and I see you
Cold as iron, sharp as steel
This is the only thing that's real
He packs his kit and turns away
Into the haze of charcoal grey
I stay behind in velvet light
Until the world turns black as night
Cut in cobalt, cut in blue
I see the world and I see you
Cold as iron, sharp as steel
This is the only thing that's real
Cobalt glass, cobalt blue
I see you, I see you.
